Position Description The University of Washington has an outstanding opportunity for a full-time postdoctoral researcher in AI driven Trauma, Injury and Inflammation Prediction Modeling. We are looking for an enthusiastic, self-motivated individual who has experience with machine learning algorithms and who is passionate about advancing the science behind predicting onset of sepsis for critical care and trauma patients. Candidates should have experience with research using cloud-based ML modeling tools, especially TensorFlow and PyTorch, and handling healthcare datasets. Candidates should see value both in excellent scholarship and in real-word impact. Our group uses predictive models to (1) understand the temporal variables that lead to onset of sepsis and sepsis shock, and (2) to test specific hypothesis that could help address those underlying factors. For a current project, which is a collaboration between Department of Surgery and the Center for Data Science we...

Position Description The Lutz lab in the department of Bioengineering is seeking a  Postdoctoral Fellow  to contribute to collaborative, cooperative, and interdisciplinary research. The Lutz lab has developed a diagnostic assay for tuberculosis that detects cell-free DNA in easily accessible urine samples. Our recent work is getting significant attention from clinical researchers and technology developers, and we aim to advance our collaborations and develop the next generation of molecular assays and point of care collection devices.  We are seeking a scientist who is self-motivated, well organized, and experienced working with biological samples. The ideal candidate will have research experience with nucleic acid extraction methods and PCR assay design.

Position Description The UW Puget Sound Institute seeks a Postdoctoral Scholar with expertise in process-based, multi-scale watershed modeling to collaborate with an interdisciplinary team developing a linked set of terrestrial-marine models parameterized for the entire Puget Sound basin and its watersheds. The 3-year project goal is to deliver a tool to support regional planning and restoration decision-making under alternative climate, population, and land use futures for a broad range of regional objectives, from orcas to human wellbeing. Watershed modeling outputs aim to help local and regional planners and managers visualize how effects of their decisions will propagate downstream with far reaching benefits and tradeoffs for terrestrial and marine endpoints of concern. This 3-year project brings together the USEPA’s VELMA modeling team, the UW Salish Sea Modeling Center team, the NOAA Atlantis and social-ecological systems modeling team, a...
