Postdoc and senior scientist positions in ML and statistical genetics for neuropsychiatric disease

columbia-university-7b9caa2d

I have open postdoc and senior scientist positions to work on a National Institute of Mental Health funded project to develop latent factor and network models of ​​neuropsychiatric disease genetics. This multidisciplinary project is a collaboration with Dr. Niamh Mullins at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, an expert in neuropsych genetics and member of the Psychiatric Genomics Consortium. 

My lab is joint between the New York Genome Center (NYGC) and Columbia University Computer Science and Systems Biology. We develop probabilistic ML and DL methods for genetics and genomics applications. Beyond this specific project there are opportunities for collaboration with diverse genomics research groups at NYGC and the rich ML/AI community at Columbia and across NYC more broadly. 

Official job postings are here (but feel free to email me directly if you are interested!)
