*Post-doc opportunity in global air pollution, climate change, health at
George Washington University Milken Institute School of Public Health*

GW’s Department of Environmental and Occupational Health (EOH) looks at how
environmental and occupational exposures impact human health. It explores
the underlying science and policy for issues such as sustainable cities and
food systems, climate change mitigation, workplace safety and risk
management. Additional information on EOH can be found at the following

EOH is searching for a full-time Post-Doctoral Scientist for the research
group of incoming Associate Professor Dr. Susan Anenberg. Dr. Anenberg’s
main interests are quantifying health impacts of climate change and air
pollution from local to global scales, including developing scientific
methods and evaluating policy scenarios for mitigation. This research is
interdisciplinary and draws from a variety of fields, including atmospheric
science, epidemiology, and economics.

This position will aid Dr. Anenberg in designing novel studies related to
modeling the health implications of present and future climate change and
air pollution. The individual will be involved in all aspects of research
including directing and performing computer-based modeling work, analyzing
and interpreting data, and preparing manuscripts and presentations. In
conjunction with Dr. Anenberg, other department investigators, and outside
collaborators, the individual will identify research opportunities and
prepare proposals for new extramural funding. The individual will also
receive mentoring and direct guidance from the Principal Investigator in
order to advance their career in academic research, public health practice,
and/or public policy.
Applicants should submit curriculum vitae, cover letter including career
goals, and two letters of scientific reference.

Responsibilities include:
• Plan and conduct independent research
• Write and publish peer-reviewed manuscripts
• Prepare and submit grant proposals
• Provide support with data management and computer modeling tasks and
guidance to junior staff
• Develop and work with computer models linking emissions, atmospheric
pollution levels, and health impacts
• Performs other related duties as assigned. The omission of specific
duties does not preclude the supervisor from assigning duties that are
logically related to the position.
