About this position
Baylor College of Medicine is seeking a Postdoctoral Associate in Environmental Epidemiology to join the Program in Environmental and Population Health Disparities (PiPEHD) within the Section of Epidemiology and Population Sciences in the Department of Medicine.
The program investigates how environmental exposures affect vulnerable populations and contribute to health disparities. Research themes include exposure to air pollution and pollen, the health effects of environmental mixtures, sensitive windows of exposure to environmental chemicals, and the influence of neighborhood environments on health.
The postdoctoral associate will also have opportunities to contribute to pregnancy cohort research through the national Environmental influences on Child Health Outcomes (ECHO) Program. Working directly with Dr. Kristina Whitworth and Dr. Elaine Symanski, the researcher will engage with faculty and staff across the program and contribute to environmental epidemiologic studies.
The research environment provides experience in study protocol preparation, study design and implementation, data collection and management, epidemiologic analysis, manuscript development, research presentations, and proposals for independent funding. Core activities include analyzing large datasets, conducting literature reviews, refining analytical methods, and preparing findings for peer-reviewed publication.
