Professional Aide

This is a temporary or an on-call position. Provides professional support. Responsibilities may include general business, science, medical, agricultural or other professional support functions. Term: Temps can work two (2) nine (9) month terms with a week break in service in between and at the end of the second term terminate for three (3) months or switch to an on-call. On-Call allowed to work 1039 hours in any twelve (12) month period.

The Data Scientist will develop and apply statistical, machine-learning, and computational methods for the analysis of biological datasets, including single-cell and spatial transcriptomic data. The position will also involve the development and implementation of mathematical and computational models of cellular behavior and cell-cell interactions and the integration of complex biological datasets into predictive models. The successful candidate will work collaboratively with members of the research group and with experimental and computational collaborators.
