We are hiring faculty and recruiting Ph.D. students interested in personal health informatics at Northeastern University in Boston. Research areas of interest include, but are not limited to, the development or deployment of technology to quantify mental or physical health behavior in natural settings; technology-enabled, tailored interventions; personal health informatics; and human-computer interaction for health. Aspiring candidates may be developing methods or applications related to measuring and interpreting real-world mental health or lifestyle behavior using personal digital devices, including smartphones and consumer health devices, or use computational modeling on such data to enhance our understanding of the interaction between behavior and health. We are especially interested in the intersection of these domains and efforts to understand and reduce health disparities among marginalized populations.

Interdisciplinary Assistant/Associate Professor of Digital Health Phenotyping 

Interdisciplinary Assistant Professor of Human-Computer Interaction and Health 

The Khoury College of Computer Sciences is also hiring at all levels in game design, ethics and computer science, machine learning, and natural language processing, all of which could have application domains in health.

We also continue to enroll doctoral students in the Personal Health Informatics Ph.D. program. Faculty are especially interested in recruiting students interested in behavioral measurement and activity recognition, real-time sensor-enabled health interventions, physical activity measurement and interventions, virtual agents for health, health data visualization, and active transportation via cycling. The deadline for applications for Fall 2021 admission is December 15.
