Fixed-term: The funds for this post are available for up to 12 months with an ideal start date of June/July 2026.

We are seeking a Postdoctoral Research Associate in Machine Learning for Audio to join the AURORA project (AUdio models for RespiratOry and cArdiac diagnostics and clinical tRAining), funded by the ERC Proof of Concept programme.

The project aims to develop machine learning models and software tools for analysing human health sounds, such as respiratory and cardiac audio, to support clinical diagnostics and medical training. Building on results from the ERC Advanced Grant EAR, the project will advance foundation models for health audio, integrate large language models for clinician interaction, and explore the use of synthetic audio generation for clinical education and evaluation.

The successful candidate will contribute to the development of robust machine learning models for cardio-respiratory sound analysis, as well as to the creation of tools that can be evaluated with clinicians and medical students.
