Job description
You will:
1. Review the latest machine learning literature on time series data processing and prediction tasks in intensive care units.
2. Use data from the national project on sepsis and other publicly available ICU datasets such as MIMIC IV, HiRID, and eICU, to develop deep learning models for predicting health outcomes (e.g., sepsis onset, mortality, kidney failure) using multimodal time series data.
3. Improve the models with personalization techniques.
4. Report the findings in the form of research publications.
