RA or Postdoc on modeling COVID-19 for applied public health: focus on epidemiological data

We have several positions open, along the following directions on modeling for applied public health:

1. screening (you’ll need experience with networks and mathematical modeling)
2. space (you’ll need experience with metapopulation modeling and inference)
3. epidemiological data (you’ll need experience with field data and statistical models)
4. mobility (you'll need experience with different types of mobility data, and statistical models)

Overall, you want to have experience with mathematical and/or statistical modeling for infectious disease epidemics. And of course, experience in programming, numerical simulations, networks. You also love working with empirical data.
Please let us know in your cover letter what experience you'll bring to the lab. Positions are for 1 year, renewable. Starting date as soon as possible.
