The importance of this new NIMH program was highlighted in a recent news update issued by the White House Office of Science and Technology. This study, titled, “Phenotypes REimagined to Define Clinical Treatment and Outcome Research (PREDiCTOR)”, will use objective, scalable, and cost-effective measurements to define novel clinical signatures that can be used for individual-level prediction and clinical decision-making in treating mental health disorders. Join us in exploring innovative approaches to intelligence, where AI and human cognition converge to tackle pressing issues in healthcare and beyond. Technical Duties: (include any protocols) - Research & Analysis: Conduct empirical studies in computational psychiatry, analyze multimodal datasets, and synthesize insights to support hypothesis-driven research and evidence-based treatment strategies. - Machine Learning & Natural Language Processing Research: Develop and apply machine learning and natural language processing models to analyze textual, audio, and visual data to understand important clinical measures such as engagement, rehospitalization, and other clinical outcomes. - Collaboration and Mentorship: Work collaboratively within an interdisciplinary team, and contribute to mentoring junior researchers, including graduate students and research assistants.
