Internships and Master’s Thesis Opportunity
Master thesis/Internship opportunity- Suicidal ideation prediction using multimodal data
UZH · Uni St. Gallen · NYU | SNF MULTICAST Project | July 2025
Are you a Master`s student in Psychology, Data Science, Computer Science or a related field? Are you interested in mental health, ontology modeling, and innovative AI solutions?
Join our international research team working on the SNSF-funded MULTICAST project, which aims to predict suicidal ideation in high-risk patients after psychiatric hospitalization using multimodal smartphone and clinical data (EMA, sensors, EEG, video, etc.)
We offer two thesis/internship tracks:
Ontology modeling: Build and expand a menthal health ontology and knowledge graph for suicidality.
Predictive modeling: Apply cutting-edge data science to forecast suicidal ideation.
Work closely with experts from UZH, University of St. Gallen, and NYU, receive hands-on mentorship, and contribute to real-world clinical impact.
We`d be happy to welcome someone right away - early starters are very welcome!
👉You should have:
- Pythos skills
- A strong interest in and familiarity with data science and machine learning tools
- Interest in mental health and multimodal data
- Experience with ontologies (for ontology track) or ML (for prediction track) would be beneficial but are not required
Apply now with a short motivation letter and CV to Rosana Strubelj (email: rosana.strubelj@bli.uzh.ch), coordinator for the SNF MULTICAST project.
