There would be the opportunity to work on cutting-edge research projects, examples of which include the following:
Causal inference problems for genomic studies
Causal inference modelling of genetic and imaging data
Transportability modeling of treatment effects from clinical trials to observational studies
Integrating causal modeling with deep learning
Causal moderation and mediation analyses with noncompliance in single-site and multi-site studies
More broadly, if the applicant has areas of interest in causal inference with high-dimensional data, projects could also be proposed by candidates.
The postdoc would be joining a department (https://coloradosph.cuanschutz.edu/education/departments/biostatistics-informatics) and associated center, CIDA, (https://coloradosph.cuanschutz.edu/research-and-practice/centers-programs/cida) with a combined 35 faculty, 70 students and 5 staff. In addition, there would be the opportunity to interact with other postdocs (between 6-8 at any time). Opportunities for collaborative publications would also be available, depending on the interests of the applicant.
