The École Normale Supérieure (ENS) of Lyon is currently seeking a highly talented postdoctoral researcher or research engineer specialized in image processing. The successful candidate will join the Spatial-Cell-ID initiative, contributing to the development of innovative pipelines for the analysis of MERFISH data. The primary focus of this position will encompass image registration, RNA spot detection, 3D MERFISH decoding, and cell segmentation.
The appointed candidate will developinnovative pipelines for the analysis of MERFISH data. Our objective is to push beyond the current state-of-the-art 2D MERFISH pipelines by developing a novel methodology for 3D MERFISH. A challenge will be to resolve hundreds of different transcripts by performing multiple rounds of single-molecule fluorescence in situ hybridization that need to be registered and decoded. Our algorithms will be based on recent deep learning strategies that bridge the gap between black-box neural networks and handcrafted interpretable image processing pipelines.
