Description

The Institute for Systems Biology (ISB) seeks a highly motivated andtalented Assistant, Associate, or Full Professor to join our faculty and leadtransformative efforts in AI, machine learning, and computational biology to bridge thegap between basic science and next-generation medicine. The successful candidate willhave a strong background in computational biology, statistics, machine learning/AI or arelated field, and a passion for applying these techniques to address complex biologicalor medical problems. Biomedical research pioneer Dr. Leroy Hood founded ISB in 2000 as the first-of-its-kindinstitute dedicated to systems biology. Unlike traditional academic departments, ourfaculty are cross-disciplinary, which enables us to take on big, complex problems. ISB isdeeply committed to sharing our knowledge with society: we participate in the formationof companies, and strategically collaborate with healthcare systems and industry toimprove human health and accelerate science. ISB's computational capabilities are in biological modeling and simulation, machinelearning, biostatistical methods, bioinformatics, medical informatics, applied to:genomics, phenomics and exposomics. ISBs technical capacities include genomics,transcriptomics, metagenomics, proteomics, metabolomics, imaging, and single-cellomics. Accordingly, ISB faculty develop novel measurement technologies, formaltheories and computational tools to support all aspects of systems biology and systemsmedicine, and these unique resources are shared across the institute. ISB's affiliationwith Providence, one of the largest not-for-profit health care systems in the UnitedStates, gives ISB access to unique resources including clinical trials, patient samples,30 million electronic health records (EHRs), imaging, and the ability to translatediscoveries into clinical applications that benefit patients. Qualifications:Candidates should have a Ph.D. or equivalent and have demonstrated the ability orpotential to conduct independent, transformative research, and have a strongpublication record to attract external research funding. The candidate should have acompelling research vision and a program that bridges computational innovation withtranslational applications, a plan for fundraising from federal (NIH, NSF, etc.) and othersources (philanthropy, foundations, etc.), and a mentoring plan for postdocs andstudents at all levels. Responsibilities:*Establish and maintain a research program in applied mathematics, statistics,computer science or data science to investigate fundamental biologicalprocesses and their relevance to human health.

  • Pioneer innovative computational frameworks to integrate multimodal biologicaland clinical data, such as genomics, proteomics, phenomics, or specializeddomains, such as deep immunophenotyping, imaging, health dynamics, andspatiotemporalomics data that can drive new scientific paradigms orpersonalized medicine with actionable insights for patient care.
  • Develop and apply innovative methods to integrate data-driven and knowledge-based approaches for discovery of mechanisms and clinical decision support.
  • Collaborate with other researchers within the institute, external partners totranslate computational discoveries into real-world applications in health care,from prevention to detection to treatment of diseases.
  • Secure external funding to support research activities and expand the scope ofthe research program.
  • Mentor graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and undergraduate students.
  • Contribute to ISBs research and educational mission. Expected Salary: Compensation for this role will be based on skills, experience, and rank upon hire in theexpected range of $155,000 to $300,000 per year. Application Instructions: Interested applicants should apply on ISB's Careers pagehttps://isbscience.org/careers/. Required materials include curriculum vitae, a 1-2-pagecover letter, a 3-4-page research statement, and a 1-page statement on mentoringphilosophy.
