The successful candidate will contribute to national research on TB with a focus on providing updated estimates of lifetime risks of reactivation TB for specific US populations.

The candidate may also have opportunities to collaborate on international projects depending on interests and expertise.

Desired skills include:

Excellent analytical, organization and problem-solving skills

Strong interpersonal, written and oral communication skills

Experience with R (required), C++ (preferred), Stan (preferred) and/or similar statistical modeling software

Must be able to work independently and in a team environment with collaborators, stakeholders, and research staff
