A propos du centre ou de la direction fonctionnelle

The Inria Lille - Nord Europe Research Centre was founded in 2008 and employs a staff of 360, including 300 scientists working in 15 research teams. Recognised for its outstanding contribution to the socio-economic development of the Hauts-De-France région, the Inria Lille - Nord Europe Research Centre undertakes research in the field of computer science in collaboration with a range of academic, institutional and industrial partners.

 The strategy of the Centre is to develop an internationally renowned centre of excellence with a significant impact on the City of Lille and its surrounding area. It works to achieve this by pursuing a range of ambitious research projects in such fields of computer science as the intelligence of data and adaptive software systems. Building on the synergies between research and industry, Inria is a major contributor to skills and technology transfer in the field of computer science.

Contexte et atouts du poste

The work concerns a project of the INRIA-MAGNET team with the Lille Hospital, in particular the development of an open source library for private and decentralized/federated machine learning and data analysis to conduct multi-centric medical studies across several hospitals.

The activities will include interactions with the members of the Magnet team (researchers and engineers) and with engineers and doctors of the Lille Hospital.  The activities can also include travel, e.g., to conferences to demonstrate the developed library and to contribute to the community building effort.

Mission confiée
