Thesis type EXPERIMENTAL, RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT, START UP
Description Arsenale Bioyards is aiming to make biomanufacturing via precision fermentation economically viable at industrial scale – for the very first time. We are looking for a motivated student to carry out a six month project with us, in which s/he will develop novel solutions to monitor microorganisms cultures using microscopy images and computer vision techniques, such image segmentation, detection and classification. The methods will be developed in Python and the student will have access to high-performance GPUs. The student will have the chance to work in a vibrant startup environment, and to develop impactful solutions to important problems.
Location: Pordenone / Work From Home friendly.
Duration: Six months
Note: this is a paid thesis internship
