Postdoctoral Research Associates, Statistical and Computational Modeling

Three Postdoctoral Research Associate positions are available at the University of Idaho in the Institute for Modeling Collaboration and Innovation (IMCI). These postdoctoral researchers will contribute to our modeling community as members of an interdisciplinary team of researchers working in a uniquely collaborative environment.

The Institute for Modeling Collaboration and Innovation (IMCI) is an interdisciplinary, collaborative research program housed at the University of Idaho. IMCI creates an intellectual and physical environment that fosters model-based interdisciplinary research. The IMCI Modeling Core is home to a consortium of postdoctoral fellows who provide modeling expertise for a wide range of projects as integral members of those research teams.

Position qualifications include:

• Modeling experience demonstrated by publications in the field
• Evidence of strong written and oral communication skills
• Ph.D. by the time of appointment in statistics, mathematics, computer science, engineering or a related discipline

Additional preferred experience includes:

• Biomedical applications, social determinants of health or other demographic health areas
• Spatial microsimulation, spatially weighted regression, combinatorial optimization or Bayesian network analysis
• Large language models or machine learning/predictive modeling for longitudinal data analysis
• Strong computer programming skills
• Strong mathematical or statistical skills
• Ability to work as a part of a multi-disciplinary team

Application materials should include:

Preferential review of applications will begin April 1, 2025. The committee will continue receiving applications until these positions are filled.
