As an Intern in the Imaging Data Insights pRED group, which is part of the Computational Sciences Center of Excellence, you will focus on advancing our understanding of retinal diseases and their response to treatment to support Roche’s Ophthalmology pipeline and strategy. Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) is an imaging modality that allows us to acquire three-dimensional, micrometer-resolution scans of the retina in seconds, however only single slices are typically evaluated manually by clinicians to assess the presence of various pathological features. This leaves a critical gap in the understanding of disease progression and treatment response. To bridge this gap and communicate drug impact effectively, you will build 4D (3D + time) visualizations for OCT scans and corresponding segmentations acquired daily by patients at home which will reveal short-term pathology dynamics missed by standard imaging. You will be working with an expert mentor while gaining profound proficiency in medical imaging.
