Job Summary

Classification Title:	Postdoctoral Associate - Vascular Surgery
Classification Minimum Requirements:	For methodology A PhD degree in (Bio)Statistics (Bio)informatics Computer Science Mathematics or a related quantitative field. Candidates with PhD in biomedical science with genomics data analysis training and experience are also encouraged to apply.
Job Description:	This position is based within the genomics research team led by Dr. Guoshuai Cai in the Department of Surgery and Dr. Feifei Xiao in the Department of Biostatistics in collaboration with the Sepsis and Critical Illness Research Center (SCIRC) at the University of Florida (UF). The successful candidate will have a unique opportunity to contribute to large-scale clinical studies and to apply and develop state-of-the-art analytical methods and computational pipelines for diverse data modalities including transcriptomics (e.g. single-cell RNA-seq and spatial transcriptomics) chromatin accessibility (e.g. ATAC-seq) proteinDNA interactions (e.g. CUT&Tag) and integrative multi-omics datasets. The research will focus on elucidating biological networks underlying critical and chronic diseases and to identify novel therapeutic strategies by developing or applying multi-omic integrative methods. This role involves close collaboration with a multidisciplinary team of immunologists and critical care intensivists at SCIRC with research spanning sepsis trauma vascular diseases Alzheimers disease and complex disease interactions. In addition the candidate will play a key role in advancing the Surgery Genomics Core infrastructure by establishing robust analytical pipelines and developing novel computational and statistical methods for integrative analysis of multi-omics and clinical data UF Sepsis and Critical Illness Research Center: The Sepsis and Critical Illness Research Center the first of its kind in the nation studies long-term outcomes in patients treated for sepsis in the surgical and trauma intensive care units at UF Health Shands Hospital with the goal of developing clinical solutions for sepsis as well as illnesses that stem from it and their enduring dismal effects. The Center focuses on targeted clinical and preclinical studies to better understand the underlying pathophysiologic mechanisms that drive long-term outcomes in critically ill hospitalized patients. Website: Surgery Genomics Core: The Genomics Core Facility directed by Dr. Guoshuai Cai provides comprehensive instrumentation cutting-edge technologies and expert technical support for genomics research. The core offers services such as next-generation sequencing single-cell and spatial transcriptomics and proteomics and advanced data analysis pipelines. It serves as a centralized resource for all investigators within the Department of Surgery at UF enabling high-quality reproducible results while promoting collaboration and addition to instrumentation and technical support the core provides consultation on experimental design data interpretation and integration of genomics data into translational research projects. Website: Salary:	$62232 annually commensurate with experience levels and in accordance with current NIH postdoctoral salary guidelines.
Required Qualifications:	For methodology A PhD degree in (Bio)Statistics (Bio)informatics Computer Science Mathematics or a related quantitative field. Candidates with PhD in biomedical science with genomics data analysis training and experience are also encouraged to apply.
Preferred:	Proficient in R and Python. Prior experience in genetic or genomic data analysis; experience with AI is a plus.
Special Instructions to Applicants:	In order to be considered you must upload your cover letter and resume. Application must be submitted by 11:55 p.m. (ET) of the posting end date.
Health Assessment Required:	Yes
