The successful candidate for this position will be joining the UT Austin faculty as part of the provost's Cluster and Interdisciplinary Hiring Initiative and will join an interdisciplinary group of scholars participating in the University's Bridging Barriers Grand Challenge initiative, Whole Communities—Whole Health. The candidate will have an appointment in one of several participating Departments in the Dell Medical School or the College of Natural Sciences , which may include the Biomedical Data Science Hub, and/or any of the Departments of Population Health, Statistics and Data Science, Integrative Biology, or Molecular Biosciences, and will be expected to actively participate as a core member of Whole Communities—Whole Health. Contributions to the cluster will be an important facet of the faculty member's annual performance evaluations and consideration for promotion and tenure. Whole Communities—Whole Health is a 10-year campus-wide initiative with the goal of understanding the effects of early life adversity on health and development by building an innovative, replicable, field-based research and intervention model that leverages advances in community engagement, bio-behavioral and environmental measurements, and system data informatics. Whole Communities—Whole Health aims to revolutionize how we conduct community-based cohort studies by first working with communities and families to figure out what questions they have, and then by bringing the most advanced technology and research methods into their homes to help get the answers they need. This position aims to exploit the increasing availability of ‘omics approaches in the multi-ethnic biological characterization of genetics, epigenetics, RNA, protein, hormonal, and immune profiles (areas only beginning to generate attention) to understand and predict health and behavior outcomes. As part of The University of Texas at Austin, the Dell Medical School is the first medical school established in nearly five decades by a member of the Association of American Universities. An extraordinary commitment of resources, both public and private, have been made to enable its development and success. Dell Med is joining forces with the University's Cluster Initiative to recruit new faculty in this innovative area. As part of the growing Whole Communities—Whole Health Program, and strongly supported by, and in support of, the BDS Hub, the successful data science candidate will apply their disciplinary skills to advance the theory and applications of multilevel and big data in health and behavior biosciences. The successful applicant will be a data scientist with a strong biosciences background who can appropriately collaborate with biologists, integrate such data with available biological knowledge, and create strategies for merging biological data with complex individual and group-level sociocultural data. We seek individuals interested in applying their training and methods development to the study of human diversity and multi-ethnic subgroups, differential and comparative biology targeted toward understanding adversity, and how adversity sequelae are differentially or variably expressed in underrepresented groups. Applicants should also have a strong commitment to teaching and mentoring with a focus on enhancing equity and inclusion in the field and in practice. UT Austin is an equal opportunity employer committed to excellence through diversity. We are especially interested in candidates who can contribute to our commitment to the engagement and inclusion of diverse audiences in higher education through research, teaching at all levels, mentorship of graduate students and postdocs, and service.
