Postdoctoral Fellowship
National Cancer Institute The candidate will have the opportunity to lead both methodological as well as collaborative research projects in current large-scale population-based genetic, genomic, and epidem... iologic studies of cancers. Broad scientific goals include, but are not limited to:
George Washington University George Washington University seeks Research Computing and Data (RCD) professionals for the Research Technology Services team in GW IT.
The Cyberinfrastructure Specialist II... is a mid-level RCD position, with responsibility in system engineering and researcher support. As a mid-level position, the Cyberinfrastructure Specialist II will have some specialized expertise in certain technologies, while having a broad set of skills and responsibilities across RTS services.
Research Technology Services (RTS) is a team of Research Computing and Data (RCD) professionals within GW IT that provide and support various cyberinfrastructure (CI) systems and services in support of GW’s research mission. The RTS service portfolio includes high-performance computing clusters; public cloud infrastructure, purpose-built computational, data management, storage platforms, and application and workflow support across a wide array of research disciplines.
University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus The Hendricks Lab in the Department of Biomedical Informatics at the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus is seeking a Postdoctoral Fellow with a background in human gen... omics, biostatistics, statistics, computational biology, bioinformatics, machine learning, and/or related fields. Individuals from diverse backgrounds are strongly encouraged to apply.
The postdoc and PI will jointly envision projects tailored to the fellow’s skillset and long-term career goals. Postdocs will be expected to carry out rigorous statistical, computational, and machine learning research, analyze data and interpret findings, and disseminate findings, software, and data to the biomedical community.
The Hendricks team works at the intersection of biomedical research and statistical/machine learning method development. Our goal is to support rigorous, reproducible, and representative research from basic science to implementation of precision health. Our core activities towards this mission are: 1) building open-source and broadly useful data science methods and software, and 2) promoting growth of a representative research community through programs, mentoring, and collaboration. Recent projects include improving the utility and equity of genetic summary data by detecting and leveraging substructure, identifying metabolomic derived food biomarkers, and developing standards for robust use of common external controls.
Current project funding includes support for methodological and applied work in identifying and leveraging substructure in genomic summary data, employing deep phenotyping and genotyping data to characterize systemic determinants of health, identifying food biomarkers, and characterizing multi-omic drivers of healthy diets.

Postdoc position at MD Anderson Cancer Center
MD Anderson Cancer Center The Shang Lab within the Department of Biostatistics and Yuan Lab within the Department of Translational Molecular Pathology and at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Cent... er invite applications for a Postdoctoral Researcher position. The Shang lab develops cutting-edge computational and statistical methods for genetic and genomic studies including spatial transcriptomics and single cell RNA sequencing. The Yuan lab designs impact-driven strategies and artificial intelligence (AI) engines to accelerate the applications of AI and data science to digital pathology. The focus of this joint project is to decipher how the immune microenvironment shapes the evolution of immune escape and drug resistance. The successful candidate will focus on developing and applying computational tools to study immune response in cancer using state-of-the-art deep learning methods and spatial omics.
Roles and Responsibilities: • Develop innovative computational methods to integrate spatial transcriptomics and histopathology image data. • Conduct analyses to identify and characterize the spectrum of immune processes in various cancer types.
Qualifications: • Recent (or soon-to-be) Ph.D. graduate with formal training in one or more of the following: Biostatistics, Bioinformatics, Computational Biology, Computational Pathology, Computer Science, Genomics, Genetics, Statistics, or a related field. • Proficiency in programming languages such as Python, R, C++, etc. • Familiarity with spatial transcriptomics and histopathological image analysis is highly desirable.
