Bloomington, IN
Full-time
Onsite
New GradKinsey Institute is seeking a Postdoctoral Researcher to advance research at the intersection of artificial intelligence for healthcare and multimodal data analysis. The successful candidate will collaborate with an interdisciplinary team to develop methods that improve patient outcomes and health system operations, focusing on causal AI and multimodal learning.
Higher Education
Responsibilities
Lead original research in multimodal and causal AI for health; design, implement, and rigorously evaluate algorithms and full pipelines
Build reproducible research pipelines and maintain reliable experiment codebases (prefer Python)
Apply causal inference and discovery frameworks to clinical questions
Translate proposed methods and frameworks into real-world clinical workflows
Contribute to grant proposals and research reports
Qualification
Required
Ph.D. (by start date) in Computer Science, Biomedical Informatics, Health Data Science, Biostatistics, or a closely related area
Strong ML/deep learning foundation plus expertise in at least one of: multimodal learning, time-series modeling, or NLP
Demonstrated working experience with healthcare data (e.g., EHR, clinical text, imaging, omics)
Proficiency in Python and ML tooling (e.g., PyTorch, scikit-learn), version control (Git), and experiment tracking (e.g., Weights & Biases)
Excellent written and oral communication skills, and ability to collaborate with multidisciplinary teams
Preferred
Experience with LLMs/foundation models (e.g., clinical NLP, retrieval-augmented generation, instruction tuning) and multimodal transformers
