The Edinburgh Cancer Centre seeks to appoint a post-doctoral researcher with experience of machine learning, image analysis and radiotherapy to the PROSECCA project, a 3 year project that brings together a large team comprising, 2 Principal Investigators, 24 Co-Investigators, 12 collaborators and a patient representative. The aim of this project is to use advanced machine learning and artificial intelligence techniques to analyse healthcare records from thousands of prostate cancer patients who underwent radiotherapy in the treatment of their cancer. From this, new relationships between a patient’s medical history, and how well they respond to radiotherapy in treating their cancer, will be established and help identify patients at an increased risk of toxicity. This will also improve radiotherapy treatment for prostate cancer patients in the future.
