The Centre for Research in Primary and Community Care (CRIPACC) at the University of Hertfordshire is advertising two 5-year post-doc fellowships; the closing date for both posts is 21 August.
Post 1: food, obesity and young people - working with Professor Wendy Wills
The person appointed will have a doctoral level qualification and a minimum of one peer reviewed publication. This Fellowship is an opportunity to develop world-leading research relating to young people, food and/or obesity. Depending on the interests of applicants, this might include research on the influence of poverty and inequality on food practices and experiences of obesity or the way that family or school contexts shape what young people eat and their perceptions of weight. Applicants will have strong social science and qualitative methodological skills and be knowledgeable about the public health context for their research.
