Open Positions

The majority of our work in the lab is computational, but some of our projects provide an opportunity to interact with experimental groups. We are generally looking for candidates with a background or strong interest in data science, infectious diseases, epidemiology, clinical informatics, and biostatistics.

Research scientists

We are actively recruiting full-time computational research scientists in the following two roles:

1. Clinical informatician and database engineer
2. AI and machine learning DevOps engineer

General qualifications include proficiency in Python, R, and/or SQL; expertise in data science best practices; and a track record of research productivity in biomedical informatics, clinical informatics, or machine learning. Formal job listings are currently undergoing review for posting on UCI’s recruitment portal, but in the meanwhile, qualified candidates are encouraged to contact Ted Pak: theodore [dot] pak [at] uci [dot] edu

Postdocs

We are actively recruiting postdoctoral candidates in the same areas of expertise as the research scientist positions above. Appointment as a Postdoctoral Scholar requires a recent or anticipated doctoral degree (e.g., PhD, MD, or equivalent). Qualified candidates are encouraged to contact Ted Pak and inquire about potential opportunities: theodore [dot] pak [at] uci [dot] edu

Graduate students

Prospective graduate student researchers (including PhD, MD/PhD, MD, and Masters’ candidates) should inquire with Ted Pak regarding research opportunities: theodore [dot] pak [at] uci [dot] edu

If you are not already in a UCI graduate degree program, you will have to apply through the regular process at UC Irvine, e.g., via any of the Masters or PhD programs in the Joe C. Wen School of Population & Public Health or the School of Medicine.

Undergraduates

Undergraduates usually work for course credit or volunteer. Please contact Ted Pak and inquire about current opportunities: theodore [dot] pak [at] uci [dot] edu
