PhD Position (TV-L E13, 100%) Multimodal Foundation Model Alignment for Oncology

Cancer kills through metastasis, yet we still cannot reliably predict which patients will develop it or trace metastatic disease back to its origin. As part of the BMFTR-funded DECIPHER-M consortium (9 partners, €9M), we are building multimodal foundation models that integrate imaging, text, and structured clinical data to predict metastasis risk and identify tumor origin in cancers of unknown primary (CUP).
