A postdoctoral position is available in the Biostatistics and
Computational Biology Branch (BCBB) at the National Institute
of Environmental Health Sciences, NIH, in Research Triangle
Park, North Carolina, under Dr. Clarice Weinberg (https://www.niehs.nih.gov/research/atniehs/labs/bb/staff/weinberg/index.cfm).
The successful candidate will develop methods to address
problems in genetic, cancer, reproductive and/or environmental
epidemiology. He/she will have the opportunity to work with
data from a family-based study and large cohort projects. In
methodologic work, we are interested in better use of family
genetic data to study epistasis, in developing methods based
on pooling of specimens prior to assay, and in approaches to
study the role of time-varying exposures in discrete-time
survival models, for application to time-to-pregnancy studies.
However, research topics are not limited to those, and
candidates with different topics of interest are encouraged to
apply.
Candidates should have or be very
close to obtaining a Ph.D. in epidemiology (with a strong
interest in methods), or in biostatistics, statistics or
closely related areas (with a strong interest in
epidemiology). Programming skill is required. Excellent
communication skills and fluency in both spoken and written
English are essential.
Interested candidates should
submit their curriculum vitae, a detailed statement of their
research interests, and the names and contact information for
three references to Dr. Clarice Weinberg at
weinber2@niehs.nih.gov
.
