Job opportunity - Postdoctoral Fellowship in Hepatitis C Research

The Postdoctoral Research Fellow will work on a CIHR-funded project on the Elimination of Hepatitis C (HCV) in Canada with a team of investigators in Quebec, Ontario, British Columbia and members of the Canadian Hepatitis C Network (http://canhepc.ca/).

The postdoctoral fellow will use linked administrative datasets to characterize the health burden of HCV and define the steps along the HCV care cascade in different groups at risk including immigrants, intravenous drug users, and baby boomers. Both epidemiologic and modelling methods will be used. The position is based in the Center for Clinical Epidemiology, at the Lady Davis Research Institute (LDI) at the Jewish General Hospital at McGill (http://www.ladydavis.ca/en/researchers). Our interdisciplinary, Pan-Canadian study brings together experts in viral hepatitis, migration, epidemiology, linkage and analysis of administrative datasets, decision analysis, economic modeling, and biostatistics. This position provides opportunities for collaborative work with epidemiologists, statisticians, senior scientists and physicians at the LDI and the Montreal University Health Center Research Institute (MUHC RI) at McGill University in Quebec, the Institute of Clinical and Evaluative Sciences (ICES) in Ontario, and at the BC Centers for Disease Control in British Columbia.

The fellow will work under the supervision of Dr. Christina Greenaway, MD, MSc at the Center for Clinical Epidemiology, at the LDI and Dr. Marina Klein, MD, MSc at the MUHC RI.  This opportunity is a 1-year, full-time fellowship, starting in the fall 2019 or the spring 2020 with a possibility to renew for a second year.
