The School of Economics is seeking to appoint a Post-Doctoral Research Fellow in Health Economics. This post is funded for 14-17 months.

This is a post-doctoral position associated with a NORFACE-funded research project on gene-environment (GxE) interactions. It will involve working closely with Prof. Stephanie von Hinke to explore GxE in the generation of health and education inequalities across the life course.

Candidates must have a PhD in a quantitative subject, ideally in economics, genetics, epidemiology, or a related discipline, though we are happy to consider applicants with other quantitative backgrounds. Strong quantitative skills, and experience of using statistical software such as Stata, R, or SAS would be a major advantage.

The closing date for applications is midnight on 3 November 2019 . It is expected that interviews will be held in December 2019. The proposed start date is 1 March 2020 or as soon as possible thereafter.

For further information please contact Prof. Stephanie von Hinke; e-mail: S.vonHinke@bristol.ac.uk.

We welcome applications from all members of our community and are particularly encouraging those from diverse groups, such as members of the LGBT+ and BAME communities, to join us.
