Job description

Who is Saint Louis University? Founded in 1818, Saint Louis University is one of the nation's oldest and most prestigious Catholic universities. SLU, which also has a campus in Madrid, Spain, is recognized for world-class academics, life-changing research, compassionate health care, and a strong commitment to faith and service.
Postdoctoral Fellow - Computational Biology / Bioinformatics
Focus: Multi-omics and Longitudinal Modeling in Alzheimer's Disease
Appointment: Full-time, 1-year term (renewable pending funding and performance)
Position Overview
We are seeking a highly motivated Postdoctoral Fellow with a PhD in Computational Biology, Bioinformatics, Biostatistics, Data Science, or a related quantitative field to join an interdisciplinary research program focused on Alzheimer's disease (AD) and neurodegeneration.
The fellow will lead and contribute to advanced bioinformatics, multi-omics integration, and statistical modeling efforts using large, well-phenotyped longitudinal datasets (e.g., proteomics, transcriptomics, imaging, clinical, and biomarker data). The position is ideal for a candidate interested in mechanistic discovery, biomarker development, and translational neuroscience, with opportunities for high-impact publications and grant development.
Key Responsibilities
  • Perform computational analysis of large-scale omics datasets, including proteomics, transcriptomics, and related modalities
  • Integrate multi-omics data with clinical, cognitive, and imaging phenotypes in longitudinal cohorts
  • Develop and apply statistical and machine-learning models (e.g., mixed-effects models, survival analysis, dimensionality reduction, clustering, trajectory modeling)
  • Lead reproducible analysis pipelines in R, Python, or related frameworks
  • Interpret results in biological and clinical context, with emphasis on Alzheimer's disease mechanisms and biomarkers
  • Prepare figures, tables, and methods for peer-reviewed manuscripts and conference presentations
  • Collaborate with clinicians, wet-lab scientists, and biostatisticians in an interdisciplinary environment
  • Contribute to grant proposals and progress reports as appropriate
  • Mentor graduate or undergraduate trainees in computational methods (optional, depending on interest)

Required Qualifications
  • PhD in Computational Biology, Bioinformatics, Biostatistics, Data Science, Systems Biology, or a related quantitative discipline
  • Strong experience with high-dimensional biological data analysis
  • Proficiency in R and/or Python for statistical computing and data analysis
  • Solid foundation in statistics and data modeling, particularly for longitudinal or cohort-based data
  • Demonstrated ability to work independently and manage complex datasets
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills in English
  • Evidence of productivity (e.g., peer-reviewed publications, preprints, or advanced projects)

Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience with longitudinal modeling (e.g., mixed-effects models, disease progression modeling)
  • Familiarity with neurodegenerative disease research, Alzheimer's disease, or aging biology
  • Experience with proteomics platforms (e.g., Olink, SomaScan, mass spectrometry)
  • Knowledge of multi-omics integration, network analysis, or pathway enrichment methods
  • Experience working with large consortium datasets (e.g., ADNI, AMP-AD, UK Biobank, similar)
  • Interest in translational research, biomarker discovery, or drug target identification
  • Experience with reproducible research practices (version control, documentation, workflow tools)

Environment & Opportunities
The fellow will join a highly collaborative research environment at the interface of neurology, neuroscience, and computational biology, with access to rich datasets and strong clinical context. The position offers:
  • Intellectual ownership of projects
  • Opportunities for first-author publications
  • Exposure to grant writing and translational research strategy
  • Career mentorship tailored to academic, industry, or hybrid career paths

Term & Compensation
  • One-year appointment with possibility of renewal based on funding and performance
  • Competitive salary and benefits commensurate with experience and institutional guidelines

Application Instructions:
Applicants should submit:
1) Curriculum vitae 2) Brief cover letter describing research interests and relevant experience 3) Contact information for 2-3 references
Grant-funded Post-Doctoral appointments may be terminated if grant funding ends.
This position does not currently sponsor J1, H1B, or O visas.
