This is a ResearchAssociate/Assistant position on a project funded through an ERC Starting Grant “Modelling to Optimise Vector Elimination (MOVE): destabilizing mosquito populations”, working with Dr Mafalda Viana and a team of international collaborators. This project is set up to investigate the role of ecological processes in regulating mosquito populations, and how interventions could harness these processes to accelerate malaria vector elimination.The post holder will contribute by developing and applying metapopulation dynamics and community composition models to long-term surveillance data of malaria mosquitos collected in Burkina Faso, Ghana and Mali, spanning pre and post interventions periods.
