The Division of Primary Care and Population Health seeks to serve our community through caring, learning, and innovation for the whole person through all stages of live. While engaged in practice and teaching, our faculty are dedicated to establishing new knowledge as the basis for future practice and prevention, and to the greatest extent possible applying that knowledge to improve care for all and reduce health disparities.
The research scholar will take a leadership role in Pascal Geldsetzer’s research group, which is a “dry lab” focused on quantitative analyses of existing, and often publicly accessible, datasets. The group works on a wide variety of research topics, with current foci being the causal effect of shingles vaccination on cognition, the health effects of sodium intake, and population health issues more generally. Key data sources for projects are large population-based cohort studies, electronic health record data, mortality data, and other large health-related administrative datasets. The group is also working on randomized intervention studies in low- and middle-income country settings and the re-analysis of clinical trial data. The researcher will be expected to publish in high-impact peer-reviewed journals.
We are in particular looking for individuals with in-depth experience in econometric/quasi-experimental approaches for causal effect estimation (e.g., regression discontinuity and difference-in-differences). We are looking for someone to start as soon as possible but there is no specific deadline for the application – we hire on an ongoing basis.
