Postdoctoral Scholar-Pediatrics Research

The University of Tennessee Health Science Center Department of Pediatrics Research seeks a highly motivated and innovative Postdoctoral Scholar. This position offers a unique opportunity to contribute to cutting-edge research at the intersection of artificial intelligence, machine learning, and healthcare. The successful candidate will develop and apply advanced machine learning techniques (e.g. explainable, ethical, empathic and agentic AI), natural language processing (NLP), large language models (LLMs), data science methods, and mHealth to analyze large-scale, multidimensional, and multimodal datasets.

The goal is to generate predictive models that provide valuable causal and probabilistic insights into clinical and population health outcomes.

In addition to technical research responsibilities, the incumbent will play a key role in implementing and managing a multi-phase study designed to improve HPV vaccination uptake among adolescents.
