* Faculty - Health - Other Health Faculty
Posted: 10/25/2008
Application Due: Open Until Filled
Type: Full Time
The Department of Biostatistics and Informatics in the Colorado School of Public Health has an opening for a permanent fulltime Assistant Professor faculty member. The position may be tenure-eligible depending on the qualifications and interests of the candidate. The position will require original research in biostatistical methodology and collaborative research with biomedical investigators. If tenure-eligible, teaching in the Biostatistics graduate program is also required.
This position will be part of the Colorado Biostatistics Consortium (CBC), which is an organized center for research collaborations with biomedical investigators within the Department of Biostatistics and Informatics. The CBC also provides the biostatistical leadership for the newly awarded Colorado Clinical Translational Sciences Institute (CCTSI). For this new position, the potential research collaborations include a coordinating center for Traumatic Brain Injury research, translational research within the CCTSI, and pediatrics research at The Children's Hospital, Denver.
The Department of Biostatistics and Informatics currently includes over 30 fulltime faculty members based in the department and affiliated institutions. The Department offers MS and PhD degrees in Biostatistics and leads the MPH biostatistics program. The Department also provides the biostatistics education for the PhD in Epidemiology, PhD in Bioinformatics, the PhD in Clinical Sciences in the School, and the MPH program. Our methodological research includes cancer and HIV/AIDS clinical trials; sequential designs, logistic regression, longitudinal and time series analysis; observational study design and analysis. We are involved in collaborative studies in Type I and Type II diabetes; cancer epidemiology, prevention and treatment; aging, infectious disease epidemiology and prevention; cystic fibrosis, schizophrenia and human nutrition. Additional collaborative opportunities exist within the university as well as with our many affiliated institutions.
The Colorado School of Public Health (CSPH) is the only school of public health in the 9-state region of the Rocky Mountain west. It is comprised of Colorado's premier public institutions: the University of Colorado Denver, Colorado State University, and the University of Northern Colorado. CSPH faculty and students span multiple campuses and disciplines, making the school a true collaboration of programs, people and places. This unique partnership is committed to building an inclusive, culturally competent student body, faculty, staff and school leadership.
Job Responsibilities: The Assistant Professor position will have three major components: (1) to collaborate with a biomedical research group as part of the CBC and CCTSI; (2) to develop her or his biostatistical methods research, and to eventually seek funding for that research; (3) to provide some general consulting in collaboration on NIH grant submissions. In addition, the successful candidate will participate in the general consulting program within the CBC. If tenure-eligible, then full participation in the Biostatistics graduate program (teaching and mentorship) is also expected.
Minimum Qualifications: This position requires a PhD/ScD in Biostatistics with some collaborative experience. The person in this position must have excellent written and oral communication skills, and the ability to work independently with biomedical investigators.
Preferred Qualifications: Preference will be given to applicants who have demonstrated biostatistical consulting experience, and/or a record of publications in biostatistical methods journals. We invite applications in all areas of specialization within biostatistics. Preference will be given to applicants with either applied or research experience in clinical trials, epidemiological/observational studies, or statistical genetics (including methods for high throughput data).
Salary is commensurate with skills and experience. The University of Colorado offers a full benefits package. Information on University benefits programs, including eligibility, is located at http://www.cu.edu/pbs/
Review of Applications will begin on November 6, 2008 and continue until the position is filled.
