The Pioneer center AI, the University of Copenhagen, and Copenhagen University Hospital Rigshospitalet invite applicants for a two-year postdoc position, fully funded by the Innovation Fund Denmark Industrial Postdoc (Public organization) program and the Danish Child Cancer Foundation.

The project focuses on developing and validating advanced transformer-based deep learning models for the prediction of treatment-induced toxicities, focusing on severe neutropenia, in pediatric leukemia patients. The work integrates state-of-the-art machine learning with large-scale clinical and longitudinal medical data and aims to translate methodological advances into clinically actionable decision-support tools.

The project group comprises pediatric oncologists and clinical immunologists from Rigshospitalet, clinical pharmacologists from Bispebjerg Hospital and computational scientists from Pioneer center AI at Copenhagen University. The candidate will be spending time both at Copenhagen University and Rigshospitalet during the project period.

The position is open from 1 April 2026, or as soon as possible thereafter.

For further information about the position, please contact: P1 Co-lead Professor Mads Nielsen, Department of Computer Science, University of Copenhagen, madsn@di.ku.dk.

On-going positions, various deadlines

The Department of Computer Science at The Technical Faculty of IT and Design invites applications for four postdoc positions in the area of Natural Language Processing (NLP), AI, and LLM Security.

As a postdoc, you will conduct research at the intersection of Security, Safety, and Privacy in Natural Language Processing and AI, with a particular focus on Large Language Models (LLMs) and LLM-based systems. Furthermore, there will be the possibiltiy to gain experience as a co-supervisor for the PhD students associated with these projects, and to supervise students on BSc. and MSc. levels.

The positions are open for appointment from May 1, 2026 or soon thereafter - starting dates after the summer of 2026 are also possible. The duration of the positions is between 1 and 3 years, depending on the level of qualification and personal preference. The positions are at AAU’s Copenhagen campus, located at the waterfront in Sydhavnen.

The positions are hosted within the Natural Language Processing (NLP) research group at AAU Copenhagen, and postdocs will be advised by Professor Johannes Bjerva.
