Title
Assistant Scientist - AI-Enabled Immune Digital Twin Workflows, Data Assimilation, and Ensemble Updating
Appointment Status
Non-Tenure Track
Department
IU Bloomington Intelligent Systems Engineering
Location
Bloomington
Position Summary
Your primary duties will be to build reproducible, testable, sequential data-assimilating digital twin workflows under the direction of Dr. James A. Glazier. You will implement patient-specific forecasting and rebasing pipelines, design anomaly-detection and residual-monitoring logic, infer unobserved state parameters, manage complex model ensemble interfaces, and coordinate computational infrastructure with national consortium collaborators.
60% Digital Twin Workflows & Data Assimilation: Develop Python workflows for short-horizon forecasting and patient-specific rebasing; implement data-assimilation methods (Kalman/Bayesian updating); design anomaly detection and missing-information inference logic.
40% Software Engineering & Integration: Build reproducible computational packages(CI/CD, containers, testing); manage ensemble interfaces; integrate workflows with external consortium platforms (Vivarium, QSP); write technical publications.
Basic Qualifications
Ph.D. or equivalent terminal degree in quantitative, computational, or biomedical discipline.
Programming proficiency in Python, Julia, R, or MATLAB; background in mechanistic modeling (ODE/dynamical systems, QSP, or agent-based); familiarity with inflammation, cytokine signaling, sepsis, or critical care biology.
One year of successful postdoctoral research experience.
