Position Details
Position Description
We are seeking a post-doctoral scholar with interests in quantitative HIV Epidemiology. Our group has diverse skills interests on topics relevant to people with HIV including: geroscience/aging, cardiometabolic disorders, cognitive function, mental health, substance use, harm reduction and treatment, and social determinants of health. We have active projects in these areas where a talented postdoctoral fellow could develop a strong research program, including supporting and leading work within CNICS that supports the health and well-being of people with HIV. We are seeking PhD level researchers in Epidemiology, Health Services, Statistics, Health Policy, Data Sciences, and Social Sciences such as Sociology and Demography or related fields. The successful candidate will be mentored by a collaborative team including physicians, epidemiologists, and social scientists. The position will be for one year at a time, with the expectation of renewal several times.
The candidate will have an opportunity to contribute to one or more projects, learning advanced project management skills as well as leading projects and manuscripts evaluating specific questions related to HIV outcomes. This position provides ample opportunity to publish papers as well as the opportunity to use an established rich data platform on HIV data to potentially pursue K or other early stage investigator funding opportunities.
This is a full-time position with a 12 months service period with the possibility for yearly renewal dependent upon performance and continued funding. The base salary range for this position will be: $5,459 per month - $6,250 per month ($65,508 annually - $75,000 annually) commensurate with experience and qualifications, or as mandated by a U.S. Department of Labor prevailing wage determination. The start date for this position would be Spring or Summer of 2023. The work is highly collaborative, so the ideal candidate will have excellent written and oral communication skills, will be detail-oriented, and will have the ability to handle multiple projects and priorities with exceptional organizational and time management skills.
