Job description

A Post-Doctoral Research Associate will work with Prof. Tony Charman as part of the R2D2-MH (Risk and Resilience in Developmental Diversity and Mental Health) consortium (funded by Horizon Europe/UKRI Innovate UK).   
 
R2D2-MH proposes a double paradigm shift to improve the wellbeing of people with mental health conditions and their families. We will move from risk-focused studies towards understanding and promoting resilience, and from a diagnosis-based approach to a developmental diversity approach that will define wellbeing and functioning across the human lifespan. R2D2-MH aims to identify genetic and environmental protective/resilience factors and how they influence developmental diversity and mental health. See: https://humantechnopole.it/en/news/from-risk-to-resilience-in-mental-health-and-developmental-diversity
 
The successful candidate will contribute to two tasks. First, conduct data analysis integrating datasets from UK and European studies of (i) infants with a family history of autism; (ii) infants born preterm; and (3) extant longitudinal datasets on children, young people and adults with autism. The focus will be on identifying pathways to later mental health and wellbeing outcomes and the influences on these. Second, novel elements of the consortium work (on quality of life and functioning measures; on platforms for recording clinical care and risk and resilience factors) will be connected to large existing networks of academic and clinical sites via the AIMS-2-TRIALS network ( https://www.aims-2-trials.eu/).  
 
The successful candidate will gain experience working as part of a major international consortium and acquire a range of research and transferable skills. They will contribute to the writing and publication of high-quality papers in peer-reviewed literature and will benefit from mentoring, training, and support to enable them to progress to the next stage of their career. 
 
This post will be offered on a fixed-term contract for 15 months.
