Postdoctoral scholar
Department of Epidemiology and Biostatistics
University of California San Francisco (UCSF)

We invite applications for a postdoctoral scholar in statistical genetics/genomics. A suitable candidate will possess a doctoral degree in a quantitative field (such as statistics, biostatistics, computer science, physics, or mathematics), with a demonstrated interest in genetics/genomics. Candidates with doctoral degrees in genetics, molecular biology, or related fields with substantial computational and statistical expertise are also encouraged to apply.

We are interested in a wide variety of statistical and computational problems arising from genetic and genomic data. These include causal inference, biological networks, high dimensional data, genetic mapping, and Bayesian methods.

Applications and enquiries should be directed to Phillip Babcock (babcock@psg-ucsf.org). Applications should include a cv (curriculum vitae), and a one-page statement of purpose.
