Join us as we translate today's discoveries into tomorrow's medicine!

The Postdoctoral Scientist in the Tatonetti Lab at Cedars-Sinai will create and lead research to improve drug safety by leveraging clinical and molecular data. In the Tatonetti Lab we use advanced data science methods, including artificial intelligence and machine learning, to investigate drug safety, drug-drug interactions, and cancer pharmacology. Using emerging resources, such as electronic health records (EHR) and genomics databases, we are working to advance the science of pharmacology with a focus on serving traditionally underrepresented populations.
