Postdoctoral Research Fellow – Observational Health Data Science and Informatics

The OHDSI Center at Northeastern is hiring for a postdoc to work on statistical methods for the analysis of large scale health data (EHRs, claims, etc.). Come join our growing team!

We seek a postdoctoral fellow to join our growing team and play a pivotal role in developing and applying statistical methods to large-scale federated observational datasets e.g. electronic health records (EHRs) and administrative claims data. This research will directly improve our ability to use real world data (RWD) to characterize patient populations, construct population level estimates relating exposures to health outcomes, and to enhance clinical decision making through improved patient-level predictions. Fellows will be expected to publish and present their work in leading journals and conferences, participate in departmental seminars. This Fellow will also have opportunities to interact with key members of the FDA CBER Center and collaborate with experts around the world to generate evidence in support of health policies. Teaching and mentoring opportunities are available.
