Hi all,
I am looking to recruit 2-3 PhD students to join the inaugural cohort of doctoral students in the Computational Precision Health (CPH) program at UC Berkeley and UCSF (See details and link for the application form below). If you are a prospective PhD student interested in joining my lab, please reach out to me via email and apply to CPH using the link below. I am looking for students with backgrounds in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Statistics, Biostatistics, Biomedical Informatics, Computational Biology, and Bioengineering.
Regards,
Ahmed Alaa
Assistant Professor at UC Berkeley and UCSF

Computational Precision Health (CPH) is an exploding field across both academia and industry. This rapidly evolving field integrates the tremendous advances in data science and data availability that have occurred over the past decades with expertise in clinical medicine, public health, and health care systems to enable a paradigm shift in the ways we treat and prevent disease. Advances in data and analytics open the door to faster deployment of more effective health interventions, but this potential can only be achieved if the underlying computational and analytic tools are conceived, tested, and validated for the health and health care needs of diverse individuals and communities. The field of Computational Precision Health aims to realize this potential.
A new PhD in Computational Precision Health will begin enrollment in fall 2023!
Applications are open September 15, 2022–January 6, 2023.
