Responsibilities
- Projects will involve medical imaging modalities such as histopathology, X-rays, endoscopy video, and dermatology imaging.
- Design, implement, and evaluate scalable modular model architectures that allow specialization and efficient use of computation.
- Develop and test methods that learn richer contextual and temporal representations by predicting or aligning different views, frames, or modalities.
- Improve representation-learning pipelines by experimenting with data preparation strategies, augmentation approaches, training schedules, and hyperparameter settings to increase robustness across modalities.
- Build reproducible training and evaluation workflows and run experiments at scale; maintain clear experiment logs and analyses.
- Measure model effectiveness on clinically relevant downstream tasks (e.g., classification, detection, segmentation, retrieval, temporal reasoning) and produce comparison reports and ablation studies.
- Collaborate with data engineers, clinicians, and researchers to curate and prepare datasets while following privacy and governance requirements.
- Produce well-documented code, experiment artifacts, internal reports, and, where appropriate, contribute to technical write-ups or presentations.
- Hands-on experience designing and scaling foundation models for medical imaging.
- Deliverables may include reproducible code repositories, experiment notebooks, benchmark results, ablation studies, and a final research report or presentation.

About The Role
We are seeking a motivated research intern to contribute to foundational R&D for large-scale, multi-modal visual models applied to medical and clinical imaging. The role focuses on three broad, generic research areas: (1) modular model architectures that enable specialization and efficiency through multiple subcomponents, (2) predictive and alignment-based approaches that improve contextual and temporal understanding across images and videos, and (3) improvements to representation-learning pipelines that make better use of unlabeled data and modality-specific preprocessing. Projects will involve medical imaging modalities such as histopathology, X-rays, endoscopy video, and dermatology imaging.
