We offer an exciting opportunity for a postdoctoral researcher to join a role split across the Department of Geography and Planning and the Department of Public Health, Policy and Systems at the University of Liverpool. You will be part of an exciting Liverpool-based UKRI-funded programme of research called SCHOUSE: Supporting Communities in social Housing and Optimising Urban food System interventions for Equity".
You will join this inter-disciplinary research project which is a collaboration of academic researchers from the Universities of Liverpool and Cambridge and several non-academic partner organisations. These include housing associations and organisations working to improve food access in Liverpool. The overall aim of SCHOUSE is to produce new evidence on the drivers of dietary inequalities for residents in social housing and to co-design, deliver and evaluate place-based interventions that address these inequalities. This specific post will contribute to the broader research project through the evaluation of the local food environment context in Liverpool, how it affects communities in social housing experiencing food insecurity, and the epidemiological modelling of the impact of a series of interventions around tackling food insecurity on long-term trends of health outcomes for Liverpool and England.
You will be based alongside Professor Mark Green in the Geographic Data Science Lab within the Department of Geography and Planning, School of Environmental Sciences and with Dr Brendan Collins and Dr Zoe Colombet in the Department of Public Health, Policy and Systems within the Institute of Population Health. You will also work closely with the other project investigators and researchers from the Department of Psychology, and from the MRC Epidemiology Unit at University of Cambridge.
