The successful candidate will develop epidemiological models to understand the risks and benefits of introducing maternal respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) vaccination in low- and middle-income countries. A new maternal RSV vaccine has been developed that has the potential to save the lives of infants from dying from RSV, but which may be potentially linked to a higher risk of preterm birth. This work will inform guidance from WHO about whether to use the vaccine
Requirements:
A postgraduate degree, ideally a doctoral degree, in a relevant topic; Relevant experience in mathematical modelling, health economics, epidemiology, statistics or another relevant discipline with a strong quantitative component; Experience in a relevant computer programming language, preferably R
