Job Description

Details The Haber Lab in the Department of Environmental Health at Harvard University ( is recruiting a postdoctoral researcher in social and environmental epidemiology. The broad area of research will use geospatial and geographic analysis to understand the landscape of exposures that contribute to respiratory disease burden, particularly asthma, in cities. The successful candidate will work on a range of projects that focus on the social and geographic determinants of asthma at the epidemiological level, using geospatial analysis of city-wide datasets. These studies will examine the increased risk that neighborhoods and air quality inside individual housing units contribute to asthma burden in Boston and elsewhere. This line of research seeks to isolate factors, such as indoor and outdoor air pollution, and poor housing conditions, in the social, physical, and built environment that contribute to high asthma rates in US cities like Boston. Responsibilities As a postdoc in the lab you will join, lead, and propose projects in the lab which use geospatial approaches to analyze city-wide data. Typically, these datasets will derive from electronic healthcare records and administrative municipal data sources (e.g. housing code violations or inspection scores). You will collaborate closely with other data scientists, clinical allergists, pulmonologists and immunologists to collect new data, generate hypotheses and plan new analyses. Qualifications PhD or equivalent in public health, epidemiology, data science, machine learning, data science, computational biology, computer science, statistics, mathematics, or other quantitative field.
