Postdoctoral researcher in complex high dimensional data at MD Anderson

Duties & Responsibilities: The Department of Biostatistics in the Division of Quantitative Sciences at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center has postdoctoral positions open for computational statistics with applications in biostatistics & bioinformatics. The postdoctoral fellows will work under the supervision of Dr. Jeffrey S. Morris. The primary research focus will be on developing novel statistical and computational methodology for functional and image data analysis, with a special focus on complex, high-dimensional functions and images. Potential application areas for which we have novel data sets include functional MRI and electrical response potentials (ERP) from a randomized smoking cessation data, functional data on the sphere and multivariate real-time time series from glaucoma studies, and various types of genomics data including copy number, methylation, miRNA, microarray, proteomics, and next generation sequencing data that can be modeled in an integrative fashion.
