Senior Research Associate in Mathematical Modelling of Infectious Diseases

This post offers an excellent opportunity for a Senior Research Associate to join a multi-disciplinary research team of mathematical modelers, epidemiologists and health economists based in Population Health Sciences at Bristol Medical School. The post-holder will contribute expertise in mathematical modelling on the transmission dynamics and impact of interventions on HIV, HCV and other infections. The post is funded until 31/03/2025 in the first instance and will provide a valuable opportunity for obtaining research training and experience.

The post will involve undertaking mathematical modelling, epidemiological analyses and economic evaluations focussed on evaluating the impact of different interventions addressing the epidemics of HIV and HCV among PWID in different countries. You will be involved in the technical aspect of modelling, developing models of HIV and HCV among people who use drugs, undertaking data analyses to parameterise the model, and using the models to undertake economic evaluations. You will collaborate with other members of the team involved in these projects. There may also be the opportunity to collaborate on projects which focus on other infections and population groups.

We recently launched our strategy  to 2030 tying together our mission, vision and values.

The University of Bristol aims to be a place where everyone feels able to be themselves and do their best in an inclusive working environment where all colleagues can thrive and reach their full potential. We want to attract, develop, and retain individuals with different experiences, backgrounds and perspectives – particularly people of colour, LGBT+ and disabled people - because diversity of people and ideas remains integral to our excellence as a global civic institution.
