Young Investigator, Open Language Models for Biology

Ai2 is recruiting a postdoctoral Young Investigator for CellOLMo, a collaboration using open language models with single-cell brain data. The researcher will develop multimodal models that combine gene-expression data and text, evaluate biological language grounding on the SEA-AD Alzheimer's disease atlas, build donor- and brain-region-level representations, and release resulting models, code, data, and research artifacts openly.

Completed PhD, or a PhD expected within one year, in machine learning, computational biology, computational neuroscience, physics, or a related quantitative field; experience training or fine-tuning transformer models; strong Python and PyTorch skills; and reproducible research-code experience.
