Postdoctoral Research Fellow in Social Inequalities in Healthy Ageing, Life-Course Epidemiology, Causal Inference and AI/ML University of British Columbia in Canada

The Stringhini Lab at the University of British Columbia is recruiting a Postdoctoral Research Fellow to work on social inequalities in healthy ageing. The position is based in the UBC School of Population and Public Health and is embedded in the Edwin S.H. Leong Centre for Healthy Aging, offering access to an interdisciplinary network of ageing researchers and collaborators at UBC and beyond.

This opportunity is especially relevant for researchers interested in public health, medical science, biology, statistics, and computer science. The project focuses on the intersection of life-course epidemiology, causal inference, and AI/ML methods, using multi-cohort longitudinal data to study how social and environmental exposures become biologically embedded across the life course and shape ageing trajectories.

The post is a 1-year appointment with the possibility of renewal and is based in Vancouver, Canada. The announcement highlights the need for strong quantitative skills, expertise in causal inference, and curiosity about applying machine learning/AI to epidemiological data. The start date is September 2026 (flexible).
