Postdoctoral Research Associate (The Office of Population Research)

The Office of Population Research (OPR) at Princeton University is seeking a postdoctoral research associate, or more senior researcher to join a team of researchers working on an NIH funded project focused on developing new systems models to examine social and biological drivers of infection inequality. The overarching goal of this postdoctoral position is to advance the use of mathematical and statistical models of infectious disease transmission as tools for anticipating and addressing socioeconomic and geographic inequalities in infectious disease morbidity and mortality, with a particular focus on the impact of these factors on minoritized and marginalized groups (e.g. race/ethnic, sex/gender minority groups as well as others with stigmatized identities). This requires an individual who is methodologically and theoretically adventurous, committed to health justice, and who is excited to stake out new terrain at the intersection of social demography, infectious disease epidemiology and social epidemiology.

The Population Health Initiative has an outstanding opportunity for a Temporary Research Scientist to join our team. This position is full-time and anticipated to be 11 months in duration. The Research Scientist will be a core member of a mixed-methods study to compare resilient immunization programs in the United States and Canada to reduce racial gaps in vaccination levels. Key activities include measuring and reviewing changes in vaccine equity in Canada over time, identifying which public health interventions or public policies have most effectively improved immunization equity, and comparing findings with a recently completed study of U.S. immunization programs.

Rao Presents Research on UN Development Program in India

External Affiliate Arni Rao recently presented a talk on the United Nations Development Programme’s (UNDP) Human Development Index (HDI) as part of a National Student Outreach Program in India. Rao’s presentation highlights that the HDI does not take into account development prior to 1990 and the need to improve this tool. Great work Rao!
