The role involves designing LLM-based methods, collaborating on data integration initiatives, and contributing to grant development within a collaborative environment focused on health equity and real-world data applications.
Responsibilities:
• Design and implement LLM-based methods for clinical data harmonization, semantic normalization, and ontology alignment
• Develop multi-agent or RAG-style (retrieval-augmented generation) workflows for schema matching and terminology mapping
• Collaborate with national and multi-institutional initiatives in data integration and standardization
• Support open-source tooling, reproducible pipelines, and standards-based approaches (e.g., OMOP, FHIR, UMLS)
