The Cooperative Institute for Marine and Atmospheric Studies (CIMAS) of the University of Miami, Rosenstiel School of Marine, Atmospheric, and Earth Science has an exciting opportunity for a full-time Post-Doctoral researcher position based in Miami, Florida. This position is supported for a period of two years through a project funded by the NOAA Global Ocean Monitoring and Observing (GOMO) program.

The primary objective of this role is to undertake a comprehensive investigation to quantify the impact of various ocean observations on the accuracy and robustness of the Marine JEDI analysis system. A main focus involves systematically evaluating how the assimilation of diverse oceanographic data affects the initial state of the ocean models. This analysis is fundamental to understanding and ultimately enhancing the skill of coupled ocean-atmosphere models used for tropical cyclone and hurricane prediction. The incumbent is expected to: (1) Perform ocean Observing System Experiments (OSEs) to assess the impact of ocean observations, particularly in-situ observations from various platforms, such as gliders, on ocean analysis; (2) Conduct ocean OSEs for hurricane forecasts, using weakly coupled data assimilation integrated into the coupled Hurricane Analysis and Forecast System (HAFS). The appointee will work closely with scientific advisors at the PhOD, as well as partners at the Hurricane Research Division of NOAA/AOML and at the Environmental Modeling Center (EMC) of the U.S. National Weather Service.

Department Specific Functions

Duties include but are not limited to:

• Improve existing high-resolution Modular Ocean Model version6 (MOM6) regional model to minimize model errors.
• Conduct MOM6 analysis using the Marine JEDI data assimilation (DA) system with a variational DA approach.
• Perform ocean OSEs, with various DA cycling and different data windows, and conduct hurricane predictions using the coupled Hurricane Analysis and Forecast System (HAFS).
• Analyze results and present findings in scientific meetings and publish results in peer-reviewed journals.

Minimum Qualifications

• Applicants must have a Ph.D. in oceanography, applied mathematics, statistics or closely related discipline.
• Required skills include a demonstrated experience with running numerical ocean, atmosphere, or coupled Earth system model, and/or data assimilation, and also include trouble shooting capabilities.

Department Specific Functions

This position offers an exciting opportunity to develop cutting-edge AI-enhanced algorithms for analyzing transposable elements (TEs) in cancer epigenomics, with direct translational applications to precision oncology and immunotherapy.

Transposable elements constitute approximately half of mammalian genomes and have emerged as central players in cancer biology, immune regulation, and therapeutic development. Their repetitive nature creates a fundamental computational barrier: sequenced reads cannot be uniquely mapped to specific loci, forcing researchers to discard 5–30% of sequencing data or rely on family-level averages that obscure critical locus-specific regulatory dynamics.

This project addresses these challenges through an integrated computational and biological framework that develops advanced multi-read allocation algorithms leveraging artificial intelligence to achieve locus-level resolution at TEs. The therapeutic relevance is direct: our work will enable rational design of TE-targeted epigenetic interventions, refine TE-based biomarkers for cancer diagnosis and prognosis, and inspire new therapeutic strategies exploiting viral mimicry for cancer immunotherapy. The team actively collaborates with the Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center experimental laboratories.

• Lead implementation of multi-read allocation algorithms and AI model development
• Conduct comprehensive benchmarking across diverse datasets, organisms, and genomic contexts
• Develop, document, and release production-quality software packages

Department Specific Qualifications
