postdoctoral research fellow

Cincinnati Children's Hospital

Dr. Miraldi’s Immuno-Engineering Laboratory seeks a computational research fellow to build mathematical models of the immune system in vivo. These models will be constructed from cutting-edge, high-dimensional, immune-system measurements (e.g., single-cell genomics, chromatin state, proteomics). Our mathematical modeling frameworks span mechanistic (e.g., dynamic gene regulatory networks) to deep learning (e.g., prediction of cellular epigenomes from DNA sequence). Situated at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital, we are dedicated to the design of computational methods and systems-immunology studies that will ultimately improve the health of children. Through close collaboration with our physician and experimental colleagues, we iteratively test and refine our models, so that the models yield novel insights into immune-cell function and ultimately guide new therapeutic strategies in the context of autoimmunity, infectious disease and cancer. The ideal candidate will collaborate closely with experimental immunologists, physicians and other computational biologists. The team will design and execute hybrid computational-experimental strategies that push the boundaries of both immunology and computational biology.

 About CERP
 
 
 
 The Centre for Economic Research in Pakistan, or CERP, is a leading independent nonpartisan policy institution focused on improving decision-making in Pakistan through evidence-informed research, engaging with policy counterparts with real policy challenges, and designing and advising on high-impact reforms based on data. At CERP, we also deploy cutting-edge pedagogy tailored for Pakistan and provide data insights to the private sector on product and process design.
 
 
 
 About Project
 
 
 
 CERP Research Development develops and supports CERP&rsquo;s portfolio of research projects through collaboration with academia, funders, research partners, and government departments. It assists CERP&rsquo;s Research Fellows (faculty and experts based in international and Pakistani universities and multilateral organizations) in starting and managing new research studies hosted at CERP. The Research Development team also conducts research and scoping studies in partnership with CERP Research Fellows. It is involved in organizing international and local academic conferences and dissemination initiatives to share the learnings from CERP-affiliated studies and researchers with policymakers and the public at large.
 
 
 CERP Research Development is partnering with Princeton University&rsquo;s Andlinger Center for Energy and the Environment to develop a new research initiative, Pakistan Energy Sustainability Pathways Project (Net-Zero Pakistan). This rigorous research will be accompanied by consistent coordination with policymakers and stakeholders in Pakistan&rsquo;s energy and economic space, aiming to provide them with a transparent, rigorous, and holistic analysis to explore economy-wide pathways to net-zero greenhouse gases for Pakistan. The project will analyze such pathways&rsquo; impacts on the country's resources, infrastructure, and socio-economic aspects, all the while ensuring that Pakistan achieves its economic growth and development objectives. It will provide spatial and temporal granularity to understand the infrastructure build-out, land use changes, investment required, employment dynamics, and socio-economic outcomes at the industry/sector and community level.
 
 
 The project&rsquo;s Principal Investigators are Chris Greig (Senior Research Scientist, Andlinger Center, Princeton University), Maroof Ali Syed (CEO, CERP), and Syed Uzair Junaid (Director, Research Development).
 
 
 The project is planned to continue till December 2028, with its scoping phase completing by December 31, 2026.
 
 
 
 Role Overview
 
 
 
 The Postdoctoral Researcher will manage and serve as the in-country technical lead for CERP&rsquo;s Net-Zero Pakistan Project, which will build on Princeton University&rsquo;s impactful Net-Zero America (NZA) study that developed granular spatial, temporal, sectoral, technological, and socio-economic analyses to describe different energy-system transition pathways for Pakistan to reach net-zero greenhouse gas emissions. This project aims to inform the country&rsquo;s energy, decarbonization, and economic policymaking for the coming decades.
 
 
 The Postdoctoral Researcher will report to and work closely with the Principal Investigators mentioned above, ensuring that the study plans are executed in a timely and effective manner. He/She will be the technical lead for the in-country team and manage the overall research operations of the project. He/She will liaise with partners, funders, and stakeholders, and supervise other team members on the project.
 
 
 The Postdoctoral Researcher will initially be hired for the project&rsquo;s scoping phase (from April 1 to December 31, 2026) with a strong possibility of extension until the project&rsquo;s completion (December 2028), subject to funding availability and performance.
