**With usual apologies for cross-posting** Dear all, An exciting opportunity for a fully funded PhD Studentship is available as part of the Farr Institute @Scotland investment in health informatics research. The studentship is based in the School of Geosciences at the University of Edinburgh and will examine the health and wellbeing within households and the effect of chronic illness care on other household members. The project has been made possible by a number of exciting and internationally significant recent developments in the use of administrative health and social data for research in Scotland. This includes resources such as the Scottish Census which can be linked across a wide range of national health datasets to help us understand family and household contexts across the Scottish population. These resources offer great potential to increase our understanding of key factors originating within the family context that may be harmful to health and wellbeing. A key task for the successful applicant will be to drive forward the development of these resources with close assistance from colleagues in the Administrative Data Research Centre, the Farr Institute and the newly established Health Data Research UK (HDRUK) institute as well as research groups in the School of Geosciences including the centre for research on environment society and health (CRESH) and the population, health and place research group. More details below: https://www.findaphd.com/search/ProjectDetails.aspx?PJID=99329 https://www.jobs.ac.uk/job/BLH467/phd-studentship-in-population-health-epidemiology/ Closing date is August 10th. Enquiries should be directed to either Tom Clemens ([log in to unmask]) or Chris Dibben ([log in to unmask]).
