Post-Doc Trainee
About The Position
Prof. Tanya Garcia is currently recruiting a highly motivated postdoctoral researcher with a fresh PhD in Statistics/Biostatistics to join her lab in the Dept. of Biostatistics at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Learn more about her lab here: https://tpgarcia.github.io/ The Garcia lab is funded by an R01 from the National Institutes of Health, and is focused on developing statistical methods that can accurately estimate the disease course for neurodegenerative diseases. These estimates can help researchers identify when an experimental therapy could slow disease progression and design a well-powered clinical trial to test that therapy. The postdoc will join lab members who are dedicated to achieving that goal together, while having fun along the way! Applications from all researchers are welcomed, and especially those from underrepresented groups. Go to this link to learn more about the position: https://tpgarcia.github.io/postdoctoral-ad/
