Job Details
The successful candidate will primarily focus on the relationship of early life stressors with development of cardio-metabolic health, including exploring the potential role of mediation by epigenetic and metabolomic markers. This will include harmonizing relevant data from across cohorts, writing analysis plans, completing analyses on some of the cohorts and integrating, with meta-analyses and/or triangulation approaches, results from different cohorts. Analysis methods will include appropriate analyses of longitudinal repeatedly assessed data and application of causal approaches such as Mendelian randomization, cross-cohort comparisons, and negative control studies. In addition, they will contribute to other work-packages by completing analyses for other outcome developmental trajectories. They will contribute to writing papers and presenting results at workshops and conferences.
The University is committed to creating and sustaining a fully inclusive culture. We welcome applicants from all backgrounds and communities.
