Scientific Programmer -- Stanford University We are seeking an experienced LISP programmer for a position that involves applications programming for a medical therapy planning system. The project is being developed in the Medical Computer Science research group, which is a component of the Knowledge Systems Laboratory at Stanford University. This project, under the direction of Lawrence Fagan and Edward Shortliffe, represents an application of AI techniques to the treatment of cancer patients. The main task will be the development of methods to represent strategic knowledge and qualitative reasoning. The programmer will be actively involved in the design of system as well as assisting in it's implementation. This therapy planning program will be interfaced with the ONCOCIN medical expert system during the next year. This position requires significant experience with artificial intelligence techniques and LISP, preferably Interlisp. Masters level training in computer science and previous experience with personal workstations are highly desirable; the system is being developed on Xerox 1108 LISP machines. Ability to work closely with other programmers is important.
