Areas of application may include cardiovascular diseases, cancer and HIV.In addition to methods development, the job responsibilities include writing first-author manuscripts, conducting simulation studies, possibly theory development, and real data analysis.
The position will prepare the post-doctoral associate for an early-stage faculty career in academia, and the mentoring will emphasize these aspects (e.g., attendance of conferences and, if desired, working with graduate students on methods papers, etc).
