仕事内容・職務内容
The mission of the RERF Department of Statistics is to employ the expertise of its staff members to advance research in the health effects of ionizing radiation. The successful candidate will spend the majority of time as a co-investigator on research protocols relevant to this scientific mission. In collaboration with scientists in the RERF Departments of Clinical Sciences, Molecular Biosciences, and Epidemiology, the successful candidate will provide essential contributions to the design, analysis, interpretation and publication of studies of the health effects of ionizing radiation deriving from RERF’s historic cohorts: The Life Span Study of disease incidence and mortality in 120,000 atomic bomb survivors; the Adult Health Study of 25,000 survivors with longitudinal clinical follow-up since 1958; and the study of disease incidence and mortality in the F1 cohort of 77,000 offspring of survivors, over 10,000 of whom additionally have clinical follow-up since 2002. In addition, the successful candidate will have the opportunity to collaborate in the design and analysis of genetic studies to investigate the underlying mechanisms of radiation-induced carcinogenesis and the heritable effects of parental radiation exposure using bio-samples collected longitudinally over 70 years and stored at RERF. This is an exciting and important new direction of research at RERF in which the Department of Statistics will play a central role. The successful candidate will devote the remaining time to independent research to develop new or extend existing statistical methods that are essential to the mission of RERF, or to propose and lead multidisciplinary studies that rely on computational or quantitative expertise.
