Statistician
£24,161 - £29,716
School Of Medicine - MRC Epidemiology Resource Centre
An opportunity now exists for a statistician to
join a friendly team at the Medical Research
Council Epidemiology Resource Centre (ERC) in
Southampton (under the directorship of Professor
Cyrus Cooper). The ERC aims to explore the
environmental causes, throughout life, of:
osteoporosis/sarcopenia; cardiovascular disease;
and diabetes mellitus; and to develop
population-based and individual preventative
strategies against these disorders.
Linked to the core work of the ERC are three
programmes (1) to examine the lifecourse
determinants of osteoporotic fracture, (2) on
maternal nutrition, fetal and childhood growth,
and programming of cardiovascular disease and
type 2 diabetes in South Asians, and (3) to
inform the management of occupational and
environmental risks to health. The ERC is
associated with the University of Southampton and
uses their computing services.
You should possess an MSc in statistics or
equivalent postgraduate qualification. You will
be involved with the analysis of large and
complex datasets using appropriate statistical
techniques. Experience with Stata would be
desirable but not essential. You will generally
work on projects concerned with occupational and
environmental hazards to health, but be expected
to help out elsewhere as and when necessary.
The post is full-time and fixed-term for three years.
