Postdoctoral Fellowship (08) at University of Calgary, Canada

The successful candidate will be appointed a Postdoctoral Associate and be expected to conduct independent and collaborative research in quantum information science and/or computing under the supervision of faculty members in the Department of Computer Science, the Department of Physics and Astronomy, or the Department of Mathematics: Dr. Connor Paddock (CS), Dr. Xavier Coiteux-Roy (CS/Physics), Adam Bene Watts (Math/CS), and/or Dr. Carlo Maria Scandolo (Math). The specific research focus will be aligned with the candidate¿s expertise and may include, but is not limited to:  

The Department of Cell Biology & Anatomy in the Cumming School of Medicine invites applications for a Research Associate. This Full-time, Fixed Term position is for approximately 18 months, with the possibility of extension.

Reporting to the Principal Investigator, we are seeking a Research Associate for the animal model deep phenotyping core for One Child Every Child, a Canada First Research Excellence Program based at the University of Calgary. This position involves generating, processing, and managing high-throughput phenomic data. The research associate will perform different tasks of varying degrees of complexity, including developing and running automated image processing pipelines, processing and analyzing imaging datasets, and curating large-scale phenomic databases with extensive metadata. A core objective for the Research Associate will be developing the back-end code for an online web application that can store, acquire, analyze, and aggregate phenomic data. This will require methodological innovation and close collaboration with the supervisor, other internal collaborators, and external collaborators. In addition, the Research Associate will be responsible for completing time-sensitive imaging informatic tasks for various grants. Participation in shared lab-related work, such as lab meetings, student and visitor training, meeting arrangements, and other teamwork activities, is expected.

One Child Every Child is a Parallel Paths project that has Indigenous and non-Indigenous Paths.  While this position will not involve direct interaction with human participants or human subjects data, all members of the program will perform training on work with Indigenous people, communities and data. Experience with Indigenous community-based work is an asset for all members of the OCEC research team.

We are seeking a highly motivated Postdoctoral Associate to join a collaborative research team investigating the effectiveness and optimization of cancer prevention, screening, and early detection. This scholarship will focus on the analysis of large population-based datasets to evaluate screening outcomes and develop precision health tools for cancer prevention.

The successful candidate will work under the supervision of  Dr. Darren Brenner, Professor and Armstrong Investigator in Molecular Cancer Epidemiology at the University of Calgary as well as Dr. Dylan O¿Sullivan, and Dr. Matthew Warkentin in Department of Oncology at the University of Calgary. Additionally, the candidate work with the Cancer Screening, Detection and Risk Reduction (CanDoR) team, collaborating with epidemiologists, clinicians, biostatisticians, and data scientists to advance population-level research that enhances cancer prevention, early detection, and screening strategies. Their work will contribute to cutting-edge analytics and multidisciplinary initiatives that aim to identify novel targets for reducing cancer risk and transforming public health impact across Canada. 

The scholar will contribute to several high-priority projects, including the Canadian Population Attributable Risk of Cancer (ComPARe 2.0) study to investigate cancer cases from modifiable risk factors. The role offers extensive opportunities to lead and collaborate on multiple ongoing and planned research studies, develop a unique area of research expertise, and engage in national and international dissemination of findings through publications and conferences.

The position is housed within the Departments of Oncology, with affiliations to the Arnie Charbonneau Cancer Institute ¿ providing access to an exceptional research environment, training infrastructure, and interdisciplinary mentorship. This position offers competitive compensation and health benefits.

We are seeking a highly motivated Postdoctoral Associate to join a collaborative research team investigating the effectiveness and optimization of colorectal cancer (CRC) screening. This scholarship will focus on the analysis of large population-based datasets to evaluate screening outcomes and develop precision health tools for cancer prevention.

The successful candidate will work under the supervision of Dr. Robert Hilsden, Professor and Research Director of the Forzani & MacPhail Colon Cancer Screening Centre, and Dr. Darren Brenner, Associate Professor and Armstrong Investigator in Molecular Cancer Epidemiology at the University of Calgary.

The scholar will contribute to several high-priority projects, including the development and validation of risk prediction models and clinical decision support algorithms to enhance risk-stratified CRC screening. The role offers extensive opportunities to lead and collaborate on multiple ongoing and planned research studies, develop a unique area of research expertise, and engage in national and international dissemination of findings through publications and conferences.

The position is housed within the Departments of Oncology, with affiliations to the Arnie Charbonneau Cancer Institute and the O¿Brien Institute for Public Health¿providing access to an exceptional research environment, training infrastructure, and interdisciplinary mentorship. This position offers competitive compensation and health benefits.

The postdoctoral scholar(s) will plan, organize, and conduct research under the supervision of the principal investigators. The successful applicant(s) will:

• Evaluate alternative large-domain multi-model configurations of the large-domain hydrologic models on the basis of both scientific validity and operational feasibility
• Collaborate with the principal investigator on analyzing, interpreting, and and data for publication in professional journals.
• Work with the PIs and external partners to identify pathways for broader adoption of next generation prediction models
• Demonstrate a high level of research performance through effective sharing and discussions of ideas in a highly collaborative environment that includes industrial and government partners.
• Be expected to identify emerging research opportunities and assist in the completion of grant applications, reporting, and project administration, as required.

The position of is a full-time appointment, 40 hours per week, Monday to Friday, 8 hours per day. Flexible work hours and remote working arrangements are possible to accommodate critical deadlines.
