Columbia Mailman School of Public Health is recruiting a Postdoctoral Research Scientist to develop novel methodologies for early outbreak detection and inference using AI/ML, modeling, and data science. This is a multi-year position providing stable research support. The Postdoctoral Research Scientist will work on projects focusing on early detection and inference for emerging infectious agents, and more broadly, apply AI/ML methods in human health research. The ideal candidate will have a PhD in a quantitative field, including but not limited to computer science, applied math, physics, statistics, epidemiology, and data science. Strong programming skills (Python or R) and good oral and written communication skills are required. A strong publication record and the ability to perform research independently are highly preferred. Competitive salary including full benefits will be provided commensurate with experience and qualifications. This is a great opportunity to join an interdisciplinary team in New York City working on infectious diseases, computational modeling, and health. The position will remain open until filled. The first round review will begin on November 15th. The starting time is flexible.
