Advanced Data Analytics Research Analyst

POSITION OBJECTIVE

Working under general supervision, the Advanced Data Analytics Research Analyst serves as a specialized role in the Cardiovascular Research Institute managing multiomic platforms using enabling Artificial Intelligence (AI) and machine learning approaches as part of a precision medicine research program. The analyst will manage the development and application of advanced machine learning approaches to delineate the health impact of interventions in both experimental and human trials.

The institute is engaged in the integration of large-scale biological datasets to address gaps in knowledge between genomic and environmentally mediated risk. The lab is on the cutting edge of discovery and has interests in the interface of genomic and environmental factors that modulate risk for future heart disease. The laboratory leverages several unique data sets including cutting edge imaging science juxtaposed with environmental variables that monitor the environment to develop next general approaches for personalized medicine. The resources that the lab leverages include the Center for Advanced Heart and Vascular care (CAHVC) is a futuristic academic-corporate partnership with Siemens and Medtronic to develop the next generation of innovative technologies that combine imaging with intervention guided by robotics and artificial intelligence.
