Job Description
The Harvard Medical School Curriculum Fellows Program (HMS CFP) welcomes applications for a Curriculum Fellow (CF) for the Center for Computational Biomedicine (CCB). This postdoctoral program targets early-career scientist-educators, emphasizing curriculum development, teaching, and educational programming in the biological and biomedical sciences.
The CCB Curriculum Fellow collaborates with a diverse cohort of Curriculum Fellows, leveraging individual expertise while closely engaging with Harvard Medical School faculty and administration to craft, implement, and assess evidence-based graduate training. Fellows benefit from mentorship and career guidance, nurturing their growth as educators and facilitating success across various education-focused careers. Further details are available on our website (https://curriculumfellows.hms.harvard.edu/).
The CCB develops shared data and analytic resources that broadly serve HMS. This includes a strong educational mandate for courses and skills related to software, data analysis, technical computational skills and the adoption of new methods (eg AI/ML, single cell RNA-seq, etc). The CCB CF will be responsible for developing curricula for CCB workshops offered to HMS graduate students and postdocs across HMS programs and departments.
The CCB CF will report directly to the CCB Director, Dr. Robert Gentleman and will receive one-on-one mentorship from Dr. Gentleman, the Director of the CFP, Dr. Aimee Hollander and senior members of CCB.

Curriculum development for CCB workshops in computational biology and machine learning
Delivering hands on training and office hours for workflows in computational biology
Using and developing curricula using AI/ML models and approaches for CCB-hosted workshops and other training offerings
Lead and intellectually contribute to one of CCB’s scholarship of teaching and learning projects with the expectation that findings collected during the fellowship will be presented at conferences and/or published in a scientific/education journal
Additionally, the CCB Curriculum Fellow will also have specific responsibilities to the CFP:
Take required courses including Teaching 100 and Teaching 101.
Participate in weekly CFP group meetings and pedagogical journal clubs.
Present at university-wide workshops on curricular and pedagogical topics.
