The faculty member would join a robust group of faculty in the Department and School conducting research in mobile health, telemedicine, and data science. We are seeking an individual who will support the development of a larger program of research in digital health, including growing our focus on interdisciplinary science and partnering with computer science, engineering, and medicine.
Candidates are expected to be prepared to develop an independent program of externally-funded research in mobile technologies and public health, including establishing a focused research program that attracts funding in the form of grants, contracts, and/or fellowships.
