Spelman College
Computational Research Scientist I – Physiological Data Modeling (Hybrid)
Spelman College, Atlanta, Georgia, United States, 30383
The Henry M. Jackson Foundation for the Advancement of Military Medicine, Inc. (HJF)
HJF is seeking a
Computational Research Scientist I, Physiological Data Modeling.
This position will be in support of the Biotechnology High-Performance Computing Software Applications Institute (BHSAI). The mission of the BHSAI is to perform interdisciplinary research, combining physical, computational, and life-science research, to improve the efficiency and efficacy in the development of militarily relevant medical products for Force Health Protection.Research in this area focuses on the development of individual-specific mathematical models and artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms for preventing non-battle injuries, optimizing and enhancing Soldier performance, and optimizing casualty care.Research efforts in this area support military operational medicine and combat casualty care missions. For operational support, we are developing phenomenological, first-principle, and data-driven adaptive mathematical models to reduce the risk of heat injuries and improve mental activity in response to sleep deprivation. For casualty care, we are developing hardware and software platforms, as well as artificial intelligence-based decision-support algorithms, to improve the management of combat casualties in pre-hospital and in-hospital settings.Please submit your Curriculum Vitae to include your full publication list.ResponsibilitiesFormulates research projects, develops innovative approaches, designs and implements experimental protocols related to computational models.Continuously surveys the scientific literature to generate novel ideas and advance projects and programs. Develops necessary new technologies and protocols.Trains, and in some instances supervises, junior research scientists.Collects, processes, and interprets experimental data and model outputs. Presents research methods and scientific concepts at appropriate scientific conferences.Prepares research proposals, progress reports, and manuscripts for submission to scientific journals and present research methods and findings at appropriate forums.Assists in the identification, development, and maintenance of collaborations with both internal and external research groups for development of new approaches to existing research problems.May perform other duties and responsibilities as assigned or directed by the supervisor. This may include attendance of and participation in required training for role.QualificationsEducation and ExperienceDoctoral Degree in Engineering, Computational Physics, Mathematics or related field.Minimum of 0-2 years (post doctorate degree) of experience required.Required Knowledge, Skills and AbilitiesResearch experience in sleep, resilience, cardiovascular modeling and EEG is required.Proven computational experience with solid knowledge of informatics tools and visualization/data mining package.Proficiency in common database/programming/scripting languages (e.g., SQL, R, Python, Perl, Java, MATLAB, C++) and their application in biomedical research.Ability to troubleshoot technical procedures.Good analytical skills.Ability to work independently in a deadline-driven environment.Must have a publication track record.Ability to obtain and maintain a T1/NACI Investigation.Must live in the US the past three out of five years.This position will take place primarily in an office setting.Some HJF employees are required to be fully vaccinated against COVID-19. Proof of vaccination or an approved religious or medical accommodation will be required.Employment with HJF is contingent upon successful completion of a background check, which may include, but is not limited to, contacting your professional references, verification of previous employment, education and credentials, a criminal background check, and a department of motor vehicle (DMV) check if applicable.Equal Opportunity Employer/Protected Veterans/Individuals with Disabilities
