Global Health Researcher in Spatial Epidemiology
6 days ago
Seeking a talented Global Health Researcher to join our Spatial Epidemiology and Ecology Laboratory (SEER Lab) at the University of Florida. As a Post-Doctoral Associate, you will work collaboratively with our team to model infectious disease distributions, transmission, and persistence led by Dr. Jason Blackburn in Geography. Our lab is jointly housed in the Department of Geography and the Emerging Pathogens Institute, both on the UF Campus in Gainesville.
About the RoleWe have an exciting opportunity for a researcher to work on spatio-temporal patterns of pathogen distributions with a focus on Bacillus anthracis, Brucella spp., Burkholderia pseudomallei, and E. coli collected as part of epidemiology and ecological studies in Vietnam, Kazakhstan, and the US. The successful candidate will apply combinations of ecological niche modeling, bioinformatics, and movement/network models to examine how specific genotypes or lineages of pathogens may be transmitted to human, livestock, or wildlife groups with an emphasis on bacterial pathogens and spillover potential.
Key Responsibilities- Perform research related to ongoing 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, smoothing algorithms, mathematical models aimed at rare events, and spatially explicit phylogenetic modeling.
- Develop workflows and data pipelines to support research across various tools, including GIS, R programming language, GeoDa, iTOL, PhyloViz, and GrapeTree.
To be considered for this role, you must have a PhD in Biology, Geography, Ecology, or a related field with proven experience working in a collaborative team with local and remote employees. Preferred qualifications include work or research experience in infectious diseases, including those with environmental reservoirs, and those that infect livestock and wildlife.
About UsThe University of Florida is a leading institution dedicated to building a broadly diverse and inclusive faculty and staff. We are committed to promoting an environment that welcomes all abilities, classes, ethnicities/races, gender identities and expressions.
Compensation and BenefitsThe salary for this position is estimated to be around $65,000 per year, plus a full benefits package. This includes a competitive compensation package, comprehensive health insurance, and opportunities for professional development.
