Research Scholar (Postdoctoral Fellowship)

Dr. Kristine Yaffe and the SFVA/UCSF Center of Population Brain Health are recruiting for an advanced two-year Post-Doctoral Fellowship Program in Data Science Applications to Alzheimer disease and Alzheimer disease-related dementias (AD/ADRD) and Brain Health. The program aims to train fellows with a doctoral degree in quantitative fields to become skilled investigators advancing the understanding of AD/ADRD through bioinformatics, big data, genetic epidemiology, prognostic models, and machine learning. Fellows will work on large-scale datasets to address research questions related to brain health risk and resilience factors, the AD/ADRD exposome, and mechanistic pathways of disease development.
