**Posting Number** req25756 **Department** UAHS Brain Science **Department Website Link** https://cibs.arizona.edu/ **Location** Tucson Campus **Address** Tucson, AZ USA **Position Highlights** The Center for Innovation in Brain Science (CIBS) at the University of Arizona is seeking a Scientific Analyst II to support data science research focused on neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's Disease (AD), Parkinson's Disease (PD), Multiple Sclerosis (MS), and Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS). The analyst will work with large-scale biomedical datasets, including UK Biobank, All of Us, Insight, and electronic medical records, to investigate the role of menopausal hormone therapy (MHT) and menopause on brain health, and to identify and evaluate drug repurposing candidates for neurodegenerative disease prevention and treatment. The position requires advanced expertise in data science, artificial intelligence, and machine learning to develop, apply, and interpret analytical pipelines that integrate multi-modal clinical, genomic, and epidemiological data. This role directly contributes to the lab's mission of translating large-scale data insights into actionable strategies for the prevention and treatment of neurodegenerative conditions. The primary deliverables of this role are computational pipelines, ML models, and exploratory data outputs. The Center for Innovation in Brain Science is an “all brains on deck" research environment designed for highly-integrated, collaborative research through innovative team science. With expertise spanning discovery, translational and clinical science, we are addressing complex issues across four age-associated neurodegenerative diseases. Bringing expertise in Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, Multiple Sclerosis and ALS, aging, bioenergetics of the brain, immunology, stem cell biology, big data computational science, animal models of neurodegenerative disease, drug design and synthesis, FDA regulatory and toxicology requirements and
