Postdoctoral Scholar in Genetic Epidemiology and AI for Complex Diseases

The Department of Ophthalmology and Visual Sciences at The Ohio State University seeks a motivated Postdoctoral Scholar to conduct advanced research in genetic epidemiology and artificial intelligence (AI) for complex diseases under the mentorship of Dr. Raymond Gao. The role involves analyzing large-scale genetic, genomic, and phenotypic datasets (e.g., biobank, cohort, GWAS data), developing genetic risk prediction models (including polygenic risk scores), and applying AI/ML methods to integrate genetic and clinical data for disease risk prediction. Responsibilities include manuscript preparation, conference presentations, and contributing to grant proposals. Candidates should have a PhD (or equivalent) in genetic epidemiology, statistical genetics, biostatistics, bioinformatics, computational biology, computer science, or a related field.
