About you
We offer
The NCRR has a strong international position and track record in population-based psychiatric research. We are experienced collaborators and colleagues from around the world, offering competent feedback and support in an informal research environment at a high international level. Our work environment is important to us, and we have a variety of social events, including Friday cake gatherings and social dinners.
About the Pioneer Centre
The Pioneer Centre for SMARTBiomed is a virtual centre with three hub sites. It is funded by a grant from research foundations in Denmark: Danish National Research Foundation, Lundbeck Foundation, Novo Nordisk Foundation, Carlsberg Foundation, Villum Foundation. AU is the administrative centre for SMARTBiomed with Prof Naomi Wray (based at UO and AU) as the Director.
The Pioneer Centre for Statistical and computational Methods for Advanced Research to Transform Biomedicine (SMARTBiomed) will support a critical mass of researchers who focus on method and software development for analysis and inference from massive human data, advancing applications in medicine. The Pioneer Centre for SMARTBiomed will leverage large-scale, multimodal biomedical data combined with focussed innovation in statistical and computational methods including machine learning to advance our understanding, treatment, and prevention of human disease.
The core mission of SMARTBiomed is development of statistical and computational methods focussing on causal inference, risk prediction and machine learning. This broad focus is ring-fenced by questions relevant to common complex diseases/disorders and ring-fenced by big data types that are newly emerging for exploitation. By bridging omics and clinical big data, the Centre aims to facilitate the translation of these advancements into practical applications for improving human health.
About NCRR
NCRR – the National Centre for Register-based Research, Aarhus BSS is financed mainly by external research funds. The Centre houses an internationally acknowledged group of researchers in psychiatric epidemiology, regularly publishing scientific articles. In addition to its own research, the Centre also conducts guidance and counselling related to register-based research projects, validation and data management of register data, as well as development of methods for analysis of register data. Other significant grants based at NCRR include i PSYCH, CIRRAU and Epi Psych. Also, a new international centre on AI in Health is expected to open soon at the NCRR.
Further information
The position is to be filled by 1 November 2024 but can be flexible subject to mutual agreement. The position is initially for 5 years, with a possibility of extension.
Your place of work will be Fuglesangs Allé 26, 8210 Aarhus V, Denmark.
