Job Description:
Opportunity: We are looking for a Software scientist or engineer that will help write hardware microscope control software and/or deep learning based image analysis algorithms. Responsibilities:
Additional Info:
Lab Vision: The Discovery Machine Lab led by Loic Royer at the Chan Zuckerberg Biohub will design and build lightsheet microscopy based ‘discovery machines’ that will not only acquire image data, but also perform online processing, instant 3D visualization, adaptive imaging, and automated photo-manipulation. These integrated instruments bring together state of the art optics, robotics, machine learning, and image analysis with the aim of building comprehensive atlases of development and modeling complex cellular choreographies. What we provide:
