๐งฌ PhD Opportunity: Machine Learning in Computational Immunology โ Technical University of Denmark
๐ Location: Copenhagen, Denmark ๐ฉ๐ฐ
๐๏ธ Department: Bioinformatics and Computational Biology โ Computational Autoimmunity Group, DTU Health Tech
๐จโ๐ฌ Supervisor: Leon Eyrich Jessen
โณ Deadline: August 31, 2026
๐ Duration: 3 years (start: as soon as possible)
๐งฌ About the Project
Can machine learning help us understand how the immune system misfires in Type 1 Diabetes (T1D)? This PhD project develops and applies ML methods to study immune mechanisms in T1D, in close clinical collaboration with Rigshospitalet, Copenhagen's leading hospital. You'll investigate the spatial organization of immune cells in patient samples and develop computational approaches to identify T-cell receptor (TCR) sequence and repertoire patterns linked to disease โ bridging large-scale immune repertoire data with spatial transcriptomics to connect molecular TCR patterns with tissue-level context.
๐งโ๐ฌ Ideal Candidate
- Two-year Master's degree (120 ECTS) in bioinformatics, computational biology, computer science, applied mathematics, or related field
- Strong programming skills in R and/or Python
- Experience with machine learning and statistics
- Experience working with biological sequence and omics data
- Excellent written and spoken English
- Encouraged to apply even if not every requirement is met
โจ Why Apply
- Work at the intersection of ML and translational autoimmune disease research
- Close clinical collaboration with Rigshospitalet, directly connecting research to patient impact
- Join DTU Health Tech's Section for Bioinformatics, spanning immunoinformatics, ML, and systems biology
- Strong international research environment with rolling application review and early interview opportunities
- DTU offers relocation support and a dedicated seminar for moving to Denmark
