Post Doctoral at LSHTM with focus on modelling syphilis & STIs in UK to evaluate the impact of new interventions.

We are seeking for an enthusiastic and productive team member, with experience in mathematical modelling of infectious diseases.
The postholder will work directly with Prof Michael Marks, and with a team of epidemiologists, and clinicians at LSHTM and collaborators across the UK including at
UKHSA.

The postholder will have an interest in learning new skills and in working with colleagues from a range of backgrounds to advance the
research agenda on sexually transmitted infections (STI) in England and worldwide.
The postholder will join a supportive team and will be directly responsible for developing and using mathematical models to understand the potential impact of a range of innovative approaches to reduce the burden of morbidity and mortality due to Syphilis and other STIs.

In addition to the primary focus on STIs there will be opportunities for work in collaboration with the NIHR Health Protection Research Unit
on Sexually Transmitted Infections. Within the broader workplan there will be scope for self-generated projects within the overall remit. There will be opportunities for publication, for collaboration and for participation in future grant applications and outputs crucial to public
health decisions.
