A postdoctoral position is immediately available in the EpiCenter in the Department of Pediatrics at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, Texas. The research will focus on determining the molecular mechanisms underlying adverse pediatric outcomes. The successful candidate will employ integrative molecular epidemiologic methods for the assessments of adverse pediatric outcomes, including structural birth defects and childhood cancer. The individual will work with genetic, epigenetic, and metabolomic data. The goal of this work will be to identify novel molecular predictors of adverse pediatric outcomes. The candidate will also be involved in the EpiCenter’s growing activities in global health. Successful candidates will be expected to tackle challenging scientific problems, develop and optimize epidemiologic analytic pipelines, and contribute to the positive and energetic work environment of the EpiCenter.

Required:

• PhD in Epidemiology
