About this position
Pranav Pandit, Assistant Professor of Veterinary Epidemiology at the University of California, Davis, is hiring two Postdoctoral Scholars in the EpiPandit Lab.
The positions focus on climate-sensitive infectious disease modeling for parasites, vectors, and zoonotic pathogens, plus translating models into decision-support tools for veterinarians and animal health/environmental agencies. One project is on climate- and risk-based decision support for companion animal parasite control with Prof. Jane Sykes; the other is on ecological niche modeling of emerging diseases, including New World Screwworm, with state agency and private-sector partners.
Desired strengths include spatiotemporal and climate data modeling, AI/ML (including GeoFMs), Bayesian spatial statistics, ecological niche or vector models, and building user-facing tools such as Shiny, Streamlit, or web/mobile apps.
This is a two-year, full-time postdoctoral appointment, in person in Davis, California, United States, with the possibility of extension depending on funding. The role follows the UC Postdoctoral Scholar salary scale and includes full UC benefits.
Deadline: October 23, 2026.
