Job Description

Overview Combatting Immune Disease Through Data Analysis! Join our team to help fight immune diseases. We seek individuals to apply cutting edge statistical approaches to study the human immune system. We believe that understanding how the immune system functions in health and in diseases like cancer and autoimmunity will lead to better patient care. We are looking for highly motivated and creative individuals who enjoy working in a multidisciplinary, team-oriented environment to use statistical and computational approaches to discover new mechanisms, biomarkers, and therapies for immune-mediated diseases. The biostatistician will integrate with two teams: our Center for Systems Immunology and the Center for Interventional Immunology to help design and analyze data from clinical research studies. Benaroya Research Institute at Virginia Mason (BRI) is an internationally recognized medical research institute committed to finding a cure for autoimmune and immune-mediated diseases, through a combination of basic and translational research programs. This means you can contribute to scientific advances that have a direct impact on people with these diseases, including type 1 diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, allergies, and asthma. Submission of a cover letter is highly encouraged for this application. Responsibilities Apply biostatistics and statistics to the design, execution, analysis, and interpretation of clinical research results and associated mechanistic studies.
