The University of Oslo has an agreement for all employees, aiming to secure rights to research results a.o.

Om arbeidsgiveren:

The University of Oslo is Norway’s oldest and highest rated institution of research and education with 26 500 students and 7 200 employees. Its broad range of academic disciplines and internationally esteemed research communities make UiO an important contributor to society. 

The geosciences are the studies of the planet Earth and its comparative planetology; the atmosphere, the hydrosphere and cryosphere, the Earth's surface and its interior. The Department of Geosciences conducts research and teaching in most of the domains of geoscience; geology, geophysics, physical geography, geomatics, hydrology, meteorology and oceanography. The Department is the broadest geoscience research and education environment in Norway. We perform research at a high international standard and have five ERC (European Research Council) research projects ongoing.

The Department encompasses six scientific sections; Meteorology and Oceanography, Geography and Hydrology, Study of sedimentary basins, Environmental geosciences. and Crustal Processes. We host now a third in the line of three Centre of Excellences:  PHAB – Centre for Planetary Habitability, and have a Norwegian Research School for PhD students (Research School for Dynamics and Evolution of Earth and Planets, DEEP).

The Department aims to contribute to the new and important UN Sustainability Development Goals, and are important contributors to IPCC (UN’s Inter-governmental Panel on Climate Change). The staff consists of 40 professors and associate professors, in addition to postdoctoral fellows, PhD students, researchers, technical- and administrative staff. The Department has around 200 employees.

About the position

We are inviting applications for a 3-year PhD Fellowship in Biostatistics to be based at the Oslo Centre for Biostatistics and Epidemiology (OCBE), Institute of Basic Medical Sciences, University of Oslo (UiO).  

Join a vibrant and supportive research community with leading national and international collaborations. OCBE is one of Europe's most active biostatistics centres with about 75 researchers. The centre is internationally recognized, with interests spanning a broad range of research areas in biostatistics, machine learning and epidemiology and numerous collaborations with leading bio-medical research groups internationally and in Norway. OCBE is a partner in Integreat - the Norwegian Centre for Knowledge-driven Machine Learning and in TRUST - The Norwegian Centre for Trustworthy AI.

The successful applicant will join the research group Statistical learning in molecular medicine and the high-dimensional statistics environment at OCBE, and be part of a multi-disciplinary research consortium called T-PRESS: Trustworthy Personalized Evidence to Support Sustainable Healthcare Decisions.

About the project

The fellowship period is 3 years and devoted to carrying out a project entitled “Reliable Bayesian prediction models with uncertainty quantification for trustworthy personalized treatment decisions in the T-PRESS Evidence Ecosystem Framework”. The primary objective of the T-PRESS consortium is to make it easier for clinicians and patients to make personalized shared decisions regarding treatment options in cancer. The project will use emerging adjuvant immunotherapy treatment options for renal cell carcinoma as a use case.

The successful applicant will develop Bayesian statistical and machine learning methods for treatment response prediction using clinical information, molecular characterizations of the tumor and results of in vitro drug response experiments with so-called patient-derived organoids (PDOs), with the aim to provide personalized risk assessments and predictions for treatment effect, with explicit uncertainty estimates. The following research questions will be addressed in the project:

1. How can existing statistical models of drug response be adapted to accurately model the biological and technical variability of PDOs/ immune cell co-cultures to identify biomarker candidates?

2. How to effectively integrate heterogeneous data from clinic, high-dimensional multi-omics, and PDO functional assays while accounting for dependency structures and biological knowledge?

3. To what extent does the inclusion of multi-omics and patient-derived organoid data provide added predictive value over established clinical risk factors?

4. How can prediction models be validated to ensure they are trustworthy and reliable for integration into living digital decision aids at the point of care?

About the PhD program

The purpose of the fellowship is research training leading to the successful completion of a PhD degree. The fellowship requires admission to the doctoral degree program at the Faculty of Medicine for a PhD in medicine and health sciences and the fellow is expected to complete the project within the set fellowship period. The admission must be approved within three months. 

The PhD studies at the University of Oslo are characterized by a strong research profile: the PhD thesis typically includes several papers which are published in leading scientific journals, while the candidates are required to take a small number of advanced courses as part of the training component of the doctoral degree program. For more information, please see our website.

Qualifications requirements 

Applicants must hold a master's degree in biostatistics, bioinformatics, statistics, mathematics, computer science, or a related quantitative subject with proven competence in statistics. We seek a highly motivated and skilled person, able to work effectively as part of an interdisciplinary team, who is eager to both gain and share insight while being focused on publishing papers in leading international journals. Knowledge of the Norwegian language is not required. However, a good command of English is mandatory. 

The ideal applicant has a strong background in statistical methodology, ideally in Bayesian statistics and statistical learning for high-dimensional data, solid programming skills (including R or Python) and a strong interest in interdisciplinary research with applications in molecular biology and cancer research.
