Postdoctoral Research Associate - Mobile Sensing for Personalized Digital Mental Health

The Sensing Systems for Health Lab at the University of Virginia is recruiting a highly motivated candidate with experience in mobile / wearable sensing, software development, machine learning, and signal processing to work on funded research focused on personalized digital mental health. Specifically, the grant focuses on passively sensing social anxiety in daily life and providing a mobile phone-based JITAI to reduce anxious thinking.

Candidates will have a Ph.D. in computer science, information science, biomedical informatics, or related field. They should have demonstrated excellence in one or more of the following fields as evidenced by publications in top tier journals and conferences: machine learning, signal processing, behavioral science, mobile / wearable sensors, human factors, or human-centered computing. The successful applicant will collaborate with an interdisciplinary team to develop software and computational models that leverage data from mobile devices like smartphones and smartwatches to deliver just-in-time interventions for anxiety disorders.

Interested candidates should send their detailed CV, a cover letter describing training and research experience, and the names and contact information of three references.
