The UCL Institute for Global Health (IGH) is at the heart of UCL’s Grand Challenge of Global Health. The Institute’s vision is for a world where international policy on global health is informed by world class research. IGH aims to support the development of robust solutions to aspects of the world’s major global health challenges through scholarly outputs, education, public engagement, translational research and ultimately by influencing public policy and professional practice.
We are seeking a highly motivated Research Fellow in Infectious Disease Modelling for a position within “The Infectious Disease Equity Consortium (InDiE)”, working on a £3.4 million Wellcome Trust funded project: “Accelerating the health equity impact of prevention and control interventions for infectious diseases in Africa”.

The post-holder will be motivated to address health inequalities in infectious diseases that affect Africa, both between countries and within them. They will bring infectious disease dynamics skills and perspectives to research that will develop approaches to accelerate the role of new prevention and control interventions in generating equitable health outcomes for infectious diseases in Africa. There will be an opportunity to engage in a range of the Consortium’s research activities, working in equitable partnership to both support and develop studies.
The position is based in London at the Institute for Global Health, University College London (UCL), with opportunities for hybrid work in line with UCL policy. The role will also involve some overseas travel.
About you
The successful candidate must hold a relevant doctoral degree (e.g. infectious disease modelling, epidemiology, medical statistics, health data science, applied health economics, mathematical modelling in another sector) or have equivalent relevant experience.
