What is machine learning microscopy?

Machine learning microscopy is the application of machine learning techniques to analyze and enhance data obtained from microscopes. This approach helps automate image analysis, improve image resolution, and extract more meaningful information from complex biological or material samples. By leveraging algorithms that can recognize patterns and features in microscopic images, researchers can achieve faster, more accurate results compared to traditional analysis methods. Machine learning microscopy is increasingly used in fields like biology, medicine, and materials science to accelerate discoveries and improve diagnostics.

What are some typical challenges faced when integrating machine learning into microscopy workflows?

Integrating machine learning into microscopy workflows often involves challenges such as handling large, complex datasets, ensuring high-quality data labeling, and adapting models to diverse sample types. Collaboration between data scientists, biologists, and imaging specialists is essential to overcome these hurdles and optimize model performance. Additionally, maintaining reproducibility and transparency in analysis pipelines is crucial for scientific rigor and regulatory compliance.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a machine learning microscopy specialist, and why are they important?

To excel as a Machine Learning Microscopy Specialist, you need a solid background in microscopy techniques, image analysis, and machine learning, often supported by a degree in physics, biology, computer science, or a related field. Familiarity with programming languages (such as Python), image processing libraries (like OpenCV or scikit-image), and machine learning frameworks (such as TensorFlow or PyTorch) is essential. Strong problem-solving abilities, attention to detail, and effective communication are valuable soft skills for collaborating across interdisciplinary teams. These competencies enable specialists to develop innovative imaging solutions, automate data analysis, and drive discoveries in scientific research.

Job description

Research Intern - Cell Biology

  • Part-time
  • Time commitment: ~30 hours/week
  • 430 E 29th Street, New York, NY


About Waypoint Bio:

Waypoint Bio is a venture-backed biotech startup building the next generation of cell therapies for solid tumors. Joining our team as a research intern means working with a group of innovative and collaborative scientists who share the mission of bringing the promise of immune cell therapy to all cancer patients.


Traditional cell therapy development faces a trade-off between in vitro approaches that are fast but inaccurate, and in vivo approaches that are accurate but slow and expensive. Waypoint has built a proprietary spatial biology & machine learning platform that enables pooled cell therapy screens in vivo - profiling how hundreds of designs affect a solid tumor in a single mouse, while measuring each design's performance across distinct clinically relevant parameters. This high-throughput approach compresses years of work into a single experiment by achieving >100x the throughput of conventional animal experiments.



Position Summary:

We are seeking a highly organized and enthusiastic research intern who is motivated to develop scientific knowledge and skills while providing extensive technical support. In this role, you will join our team to contribute to spatial biology and microscopy R&D at our lab at the Alexandria Center for Life Science in New York (430 E 29th St).



Time Commitment:

This role requires a commitment of at least 30 hours/week. Please detail your availability in your cover letter.



Education Requirements:

  • Recent graduates of BS and/or graduate school programs in Biology, Molecular Biology, Cell Biology, Immunology, Cancer Biology, or a related field
  • Individuals with BS or MS degree in progress also encouraged to apply



Key Duties Include:

  • Process FFPE sections for microscopy
  • Perform cell biology experiments to support ongoing spatial biology studies, including staining, assay optimization, and fluorescence microscopy.
  • Manage general laboratory operations and organization, such as maintaining equipment, reagents, and supplies
  • Develop and write scientific protocols, analyze data, and communicate experimental results
  • Keep detailed scientific records in an electronic lab notebook and actively contribute to the organization & general housekeeping of the lab
  • Provide conceptual input on experimental design and interpretation in a team setting


Skills and Experience (required)

  • Expertise in molecular biology and/or cell biology, including hands-on experience performing experiments
  • Enthusiasm for taking initiative on a range of responsibilities
  • Ability to learn quickly, prioritize multiple tasks in accordance with changing responsibilities, and work in a fast-paced environment
  • Excellent attention to detail throughout long multi day workflows
  • Strong communication and organizational skills to work collaboratively



Skills and Experience (preferred)

  • Hands-on experience using fluorescence microscopy for detection of proteins, nucleic acids, or other biological molecules
  • Knowledge of immunology and/or cancer biology
