Post-Doctoral Fellowship

The Abdul Latif Jameel Clinic for Machine Learning in Health is seeks to recruit exceptional talent for a high-profile and competitive fellowship in collaboration with the Schwarzman College of Computing.


At MIT we use knowledge to solve “the world’s great challenges”, and the Jameel Clinic is furthering such a vision through the creation of new paradigms in medical technology, computing, engineering and science for the betterment of human health. Through our dedicated process of exploration, funding, community building and support, the Jameel Clinic is uniquely positioned to create novel, transformative biotechnologies and clinical AI systems that will have a profound impact on society.

The fellowship offers a full-time position, accompanied by a minor teaching load per year as primary instructor in a clinical AI-related course at MIT.
