Postdoctoral Researcher in Medical Geography
4 weeks ago
The University of Florida's Spatial Epidemiology and Ecology Research Laboratory (SEER Lab) is seeking a highly motivated Postdoctoral Researcher in Medical Geography to join our team. The successful candidate will work under the supervision of Dr. Jason Blackburn to investigate the spatiotemporal patterns of infectious diseases, including Bacillus anthracis, Brucella spp., Burkholderia pseudomallei, and E. coli. The research will focus on modeling the distribution, transmission, and persistence of these pathogens in Vietnam, Kazakhstan, and the US. The candidate will apply a combination of ecological niche modeling, bioinformatics, and movement/network models to examine the spillover potential of these pathogens. The position will be initially awarded for one year, with the possibility of renewal for up to three years, contingent upon strong performance and availability of funds. The successful candidate will work collaboratively with the SEER Lab team to perform spatial analysis, ecological niche modeling, and mathematical modeling. The candidate will also be expected to develop workflows and data pipelines to support research across various tools, including GIS, R, and Python. The position is housed in the SEER Lab spaces in Turlington Hall and the Emerging Pathogens Institute, and the candidate will have dedicated workspaces in both facilities. The University of Florida is an equal opportunity institution dedicated to building a broadly diverse and inclusive faculty and staff. The successful candidate will be expected to contribute to this environment through their scholarship, teaching, mentoring, and professional service.
Responsibilities- Perform research related to the ongoing US DTRA and UF CHeRI funded projects on anthrax, brucellosis, and melioidosis in Vietnam and comparison to other landscapes/datasets where we work.
- Work collaboratively with members of the SEER Lab team to perform spatial analysis, ecological niche modeling, and mathematical modeling.
- Develop workflows and data pipelines to support research across various tools, including GIS, R, and Python.
- Contribute to the development of research proposals and manuscripts.
- PhD in Biology, Geography, Ecology, or related field with proven experience working in a collaborative team with local and remote employees.
- Experience working with infectious diseases, including those with environmental reservoirs, and those that infect livestock and wildlife.
- Experience with mathematical models, including extreme value theory, animal movement quantification, and wildlife disease spillover.
- Programming experience with R and Python.
- Experience managing or co-managing data sharing or code sharing via GitHub or similar.
