Specifically, you will:
- create new statistical methods to analyze various data types, including:
- high-dimensional genetics and biomarker observations
- data from electronic health medical records
- environmental and spatial data
- longitudinal and survival data
- conduct predictive modeling and evaluate model performance
- translate findings into public health applications
- guide research projects to develop statistical and computational methods that eventually lead to publications
- collaborate within an interdisciplinary team to build their methodological and collaborative research program
DCEG has multiple positions available. Your stipend is commensurate with training and relevant research experience.
