EMPLEO | Two tenure track positions in health data science / Tampere, Finland

Two tenure track positions in health data science at Tampere University, Finland

Health Data Science is a strategic profiling area of Tampere University that brings together domain experts on data science and health research across Faculties.
Health Data Science involves advanced analytics of biological, clinical, and health care data. Our areas of interest range from in depth biological disease characterization at genome and phenotype level to population scale health care analysis with national registers and real-world data e.g. from hospital data lakes. We aim to develop and validate biomarkers and predictive models for prevention, screening and treatment, as well as develop approaches to stratification and treatment selection to optimize outcomes and health care effectiveness.

Positions will be located at Faculty of Medicine and Health Technology (MET) and Faculty of Social Sciences (SOC).

Job description

We are seeking highly motivated applicants with a track-record of internationally competitive research in data science and its applications in health research. Two tenure track position(s) are available:

Position 1: We are interested in hiring an Assistant or Associate Professor in the area of biomedical data analysis on large scale datasets, but welcome applications in all areas of medical and health data analysis. We take a broad view of medical and health data, including but not limited to sequencing, biomedical imaging, phenotype analysis, and applications of these. We encourage candidates with interest in developing computational solutions to improve healthcare to apply.

Position 2: We are interested in hiring an Assistant or Associate Professor in the area of healthcare data analysis. We especially encourage applications from candidates with experience in development and applications of novel analysis methods for population-level studies of health care outcomes using registers and data lakes. We take a broad view of healthcare data analysis, including but not limited to development of computational solutions for (patient) stratification and treatment selection to optimize outcomes and health care effectiveness.
