About this position
Postdoctoral Associate opportunity at the University of Miami in Miami, Florida, United States, based in the Peggy and Harold Katz Family Drug Discovery Center (Katz Center).
The position is in cardiovascular and cardiometabolic epidemiology and focuses on research topics including hypertension, diabetes, chronic kidney disease, cardiovascular disease, risk prediction, health disparities, and related cognitive outcomes. The postdoc will work with Dr. Tali Elfassy and multidisciplinary collaborators on federally and foundation-funded projects using large epidemiologic cohorts and national health surveys.
This is a strong fit for candidates seeking advanced training toward an independent research career in epidemiology, population health, biostatistics, or a related quantitative field. Responsibilities include leading and collaborating on epidemiologic studies, managing and analyzing large longitudinal and survey datasets, applying longitudinal/time-to-event and complex survey methods, preparing first-author manuscripts, contributing to grant applications, presenting findings, mentoring trainees, and developing an independent line of research.
Eligibility highlights: Ph.D., Sc.D., Dr.P.H., or equivalent doctoral degree in Epidemiology, Biostatistics, Public Health, Population Health, or a closely related field; strong SAS skills; experience with observational data, multivariable regression, causal inference, and reproducible research. Preferred experience includes cardiovascular or cardiometabolic disease, cognitive aging/dementia, health disparities, cohort studies, survey weights, and NIH grant writing.
Funding/benefits: The role is supported by federally and foundation-funded research, and the University of Miami notes a comprehensive benefits package including medical, dental, and tuition remission.
How to apply: Submit an application through the Workday posting. Current employees should use the internal application process. No deadline was stated in the post.
