Research Associate Positions in Statistical Bioinformatics

 

Postdoctoral Research Associate Positions in statistical bioinformatics are open at the Departments of Public Health Sciences (Biostatistics Division) of the University of Virginia School of Medicine, subject to the availability of funding in Fall 2006.  

 

The candidates are expected to have strong theoretical and computational statistics backgrounds. Experiences in some of the following areas are desirable: recent classification methods such as discriminant analysis, random forest and support vector machines, imprecise (or fuzzy) probability inference, Markov chain Monte Carlo, gene annotation analysis, and pathway modeling. Statistical computing in R and Splus and programming capability in C, C++, and perl are also plus. Interested parties can send brief description about research interest and current CV, and arrange two reference letters to Prof. Jae K. Lee (jaeklee@virginia.edu). These positions will be involved in statistical and bioinformatics research in highly challenging genomic and proteomic studies in cancer biomarker and anticancer drug discovery and genome-wide pathway modeling on atherosclerosis.
