The Data Science Health Content Operations team is looking for a Data Scientist with a focus on Machine Learning, NLP, and Statistical techniques to help build state of the art applications for the health sciences domain. This person will have hands on experience developing best models and standards as well as extensive knowledge of how to apply the right algorithms to the right problems. Our solutions depend heavily on concept indexing or annotation (using ontologies in the medical domain), relationship tagging and extraction (from clinical content and scientific literature) or automated generation of clinical topics. The ideal candidate will have academic or industry experience solving data science problems (topic modelling, entity extraction, named-entity recognition, concept tagging, word-sense disambiguation, information retrieval, clustering, supervised and unsupervised learning) using NLP, machine learning, deep learning, and statistical methods on vast quantities of data. You will also work closely with the EMMeT (Elsevier Merged Medical Taxonomy) team providing data analytics support to EMMeT and Elsevier’s healthcare knowledge graph (H-graph) to support decision-making, designing automated approaches for ontology and graph development, ontology validation and terminology mappings. You will work with a team of medical and subject matter experts, as well as product leads to determine how to best build and leverage semantic capabilities.Main Activities and Responsibilities Text and data mining Information extraction from structured and unstructured data. Also well-versed in machine learning, you will bring new processes into the organization in order to improve data excerption and apply machine learning to medical and clinical content. This work includes the application of Elsevier’s taxonomy and ontology assets to a wide variety of content – as well as drive developments in the application of and expansion on these vocabularies.
