    BACKGROUND

    PhD student positions now available for Fall 2020 researching Computational Cancer Biology at UMass Lowell. This research sits at the crossroads of computational biology, data science, and epidemiology, and there are a number of possible projects https://rdmelamed.github.io/#projects. Your ideas for other projects are welcome!

    Students who want to work in cancer research, and who are interested in learning and applying data science methods should contact me to join. Our work is 100% computational, using data sets generated by other people. So, students should be excited to learn to visualize and model data sets using tools like R and Python, and packages like tensorflow/pytorch and Stan.

    LOCALE

    Lowell, MA

    COMPENSATION

    These positions are fully funded with a mix of TAship and research funds. Students should contact me, and can apply to the UML Applied Biology PhD program https://www.uml.edu/sciences/biology/programs-of-study/phd-applied-biology.aspx – applications are rolling.

    HOW TO APPLY
