Dr. Euan Ashley's Lab at Stanford Uni. Seeking Data Scientist for Postdoctoral Opportunity

[Jacqueline Tran]

The lab of Dr. Euan Ashley at Stanford University is seeking a highly motivated data scientist for a funded 1-year postdoctoral scholar position focused on analysis of data from wearable and mobile health data platforms collected over the past 5 years as part of the My Heart Counts study.

 

Their laboratory lives within the Departments of Medicine (Cardiovascular Medicine), Genetics, and Biomedical Data Science. Dr. Ashley’s research focuses on leveraging emerging technologies such as genomics and wearable sensors to provide insights into precision medicine (https://ashleylab.stanford.edu/).

 

Their team runs the My Heart Counts study, an iOS app-based survey of activity and health with data from over 60,000 participants from 3 continents.  The study was launched in 2015, at the same event as the Apple Watch, and has since been used to find insights into cardiovascular health, create a data portal and complete an entirely remote randomized controlled trial to promote physical activity.
