Description
Research Assistant Professors – Biomedical Informatics - PED185
The University of Chicago's Department of Pediatrics, Section of Biomedical Informatics, seeks Research Assistant Professors to contribute to new research infrastructure within the Department. This infrastructure will enable cutting-edge biomedical research and will seamlessly integrate data-driven solutions into pediatric medicine, ensuring the delivery of personalized, precise, and efficient care for every child. The appointee will be involved in teaching and training of postdocs and students. Compensation (including a generous package of fringe benefits) is dependent upon qualifications.
The appointees will join a vibrant center of scientific discovery and innovation. Opportunities for multidisciplinary collaboration are abundant, both within and outside the Biological Sciences Division. The Biological Sciences Division, other academic units of the University of Chicago, and UChicago Medicine, are all contained within one compact campus in Chicago's Hyde Park. The primary appointment will be in the Department of Pediatrics although we anticipate that the appointee will develop close interactions with other departments, divisions, and institutes at the University of Chicago.
Prior to the start of employment, qualified applicants must have a doctoral degree or equivalent. We especially welcome applicants with a background in the development of natural language processing strategies to address a broad spectrum of biomedical problems with a particular interest in clinical and disease-related states.
