You will take on an important role within the BioAssay Express project, which is the first drug discovery platform for assay informatics. You will be using multiple front- and back-end technologies (e.g. Java, TypeScript/JavaScript, Apache Tomcat, jQuery, OpenNLP, among others) to extend and improve an enterprise web application.
Primary tasks include:
- Improving the natural language processing and machine learning technology for predicting assay annotations from existing information
- Maintaining the underlying ontology-based annotation system for integration with the greater semantic web
- Designing a quality control infrastructure to validate new versions of the platform and releasing to multiple sites in real time
- Refining the user interface in response to feedback from scientists
