Join MD Anderson's Translational Molecular Pathology team as a Data Scientist and help develop innovative AI technologies that have the potential to transform how cancer is understood, diagnosed, and treated. You'll work at the intersection of artificial intelligence, multimodal pathology, molecular data, and oncology, developing computational methods that turn complex biological data into meaningful insights and move discoveries toward clinical translation.
What's in it for you? This role offers the opportunity to work alongside a highly interdisciplinary team of scientists, pathologists, clinicians, and researchers on cutting-edge problems in cancer research. You'll develop and evaluate state-of-the-art AI and machine learning approaches, build and maintain analytical pipelines and computational infrastructure, and contribute to the design of pathology, biological, and sequencing experiments that generate high-quality data for machine learning.
You'll also have the opportunity to publish your work in high-impact journals and machine learning conferences, present findings at internal and external conferences, and collaborate with experts across disciplines to generate biologically meaningful results. As your expertise grows, you'll also mentor junior trainees and help advance innovative computational approaches toward real-world clinical applications in oncology.
At MD Anderson, you'll also enjoy a comprehensive benefits package, including competitive pay, an annual merit increase program, annual incentive opportunities, an employer-funded pension contribution, medical/dental/vision coverage, generous paid time off, and opportunities for professional growth and development.
If you're a data scientist passionate about AI, machine learning, and cancer research-and want to see your work move beyond algorithms and toward meaningful clinical impact-this is an opportunity to make a difference at MD Anderson.
The ideal candidate will have digital pathology experience
