The PhD is in collaboration with Canon Medical Research Europe and focus on developing causal AI solutions for rethinking how we develop and use medical imaging, and contribute to an exciting area where AI meets imaging.

The candidate will join Prof. Sotirios Tsaftaris’ team and CHAI, with regular visits to Canon Medical’s Edinburgh-based R&D center; (part of the Canon Inc conglomerate) and potentially visit other CHAI partners. You will gain valuable experience working across both academic and industry environments, with strong mentorship and training opportunities, from leading experts.
