 Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in Spatial Epidemiology and Biostatistics

We invite applications from ambitious post doctoral scientists, to undertake research in a Flagship research programme on epidemics in Africa. The fellow will have access to some of the finest longitudinal datasets in Africa and will apply advanced geospatial and molecular epidemiological analytical techniques to identify spatiotemporal hotspots for emerging pathogens, understand the dynamics of transmission networks and directly inform prevention and treatment efforts in Africa.

The fellow will contribute to further developments in existing modelling techniques that estimate the reproductive potential of mosquito-species and the suitability transmission potential of arboviruses such as dengue and Zika.

– Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in Epidemiology, Genomics & Phylogenetics

We invite applications from ambitious post doctoral scientists, to undertake research in a Flagship research programme on epidemics in Africa. The fellow will develop and apply molecular epidemiology, phylodynamics and phylogeography techniques to describe pathogens of epidemiological concern to Africa.

– Postdoctoral Research Software Engineers (RSEs)

We invite applications from three postdoctoral researchers with an interest in developing into professional Research Software Engineers (RSEs). Research Software Engineer (RSE) is an exciting new role for researchers with an interest and aptitude for the computational aspects of research and is of growing importance internationally.

Fellowship promoters will be appointed at the Centre for Epidemic Response and Innovation (CERI) at Stellenbosch University in South Africa. Postdoctoral Fellows will be awarded a well-paid tax-free fellowship in South African currency for up to 3 years.
