Jeff Eaton (http://www.imperial.ac.uk/people/jeffrey.eaton) and I are
looking to hire a postdoc to help us model HIV in sub-Saharan Africa.
There’s a lot of potential for stats and ML methods to bring about real
advances in this area, and the potential projects are positioned to
have a large and immediate impact:
-
New geostatistical models for spatio-temporal inference about HIV
incidence in sub-Saharan Africa. -
Developing statistical and mathematical models for combining
administrative health system data and population survey data to
understand HIV patterns and trends. -
Validating approaches for utilizing HIV case surveillance data for
epidemic estimation in sub-Saharan Africa. -
Modelling and analysis of novel HIV surveillance strategies
leveraging biomarkers for recent HIV infection and optimal design for
new surveillance platforms. -
Analysis of HIV epidemic trends and transmission dynamics in general
population HIV cohort studies.
