About UQ

As part of the UQ community, you will have the opportunity to work alongside the brightest minds, who have joined us from all over the world, and within an environment where interdisciplinary collaborations are encouraged.

At the core of our teaching remains our students, and their experience with us sets a foundation for success far beyond graduation. UQ has made a commitment to making education opportunities available for all Queenslanders, regardless of personal, financial, or geographical barriers.

As part of our commitment to excellence in research and professional practice in academic contexts, we are proud to provide our staff with access to world- class facilities and equipment, grant writing support, greater research funding opportunities, and other forms of staff support and development.

About This Opportunity

We are seeking a highly motivated Postdoctoral Research Fellow/Research Officer to join the Operational Research and Decision Support for Prevention, Control and Elimination of Infectious Diseases (ODeSI) team at the UQ Centre for Clinical Research (UQCCR). This position will specifically bring expertise in infectious disease epidemiology and modelling.

The ODeSI team (https: // clinical-research.centre.uq.edu.au/odesi) has internationally recognised expertise in neglected tropical diseases, emerging infectious diseases, vaccine preventable diseases, and travel medicine. ODeSI's mission is to optimise infectious disease prevention, control, and elimination by generating new evidence and providing innovative solutions that support clinical and public health decision making. The team has strong multidisciplinary partnerships with clinical and public health decision makers, collaborating with them to co-design research, implement and evaluate interventions, and explore the application of innovative methods and new technologies for disease prevention and control. ODeSI has extensive experience in operational research and field surveys (including international projects), predictive risk mapping and modelling (spatial epidemiology), clinical trials, disease surveillance, and the use of novel methods including Bayesian network, machine learning, social network analysis and dynamic data visualisation tools.

Through UQ's Health Research Accelerator Program (HERA), the ODeSI team plans to expand its operational research activities in Australia and the Asia Pacific. By collaborating with data science and digital health experts across UQ, the team will also capitalise on advances in information technologies and data analytics to optimise evidence synthesis, information sharing, knowledge dissemination, risk communication, and decision making related to infectious diseases. The successful applicant will have the opportunity to work with ODeSI's well-established network of collaborators in Australia and internationally to manage our growing research programs on infectious diseases and be at the forefront of exciting new opportunities through the HERA program. Our collaborators include leading universities (e.g., Harvard, London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine), and global policy and decision makers (WHO, US CDC, Task Force for Global Health).

Key responsibilities will include:

·  Develop a coherent research program and an emerging research profile aligned with the ODeSI program.

·  Produce quality research outputs consistent with discipline norms by publishing or exhibiting in peer-reviewed research journals, other appropriate refereed publications, and conference publications.

·  Participate in applications for competitive research funding to support projects and activities.

·  Work with the project team and partners to develop and conduct joint research and applications for competitive research funding support.

·  Support the day-to-day management of research initiatives and projects of the ODeSI program.

·  Review and draw upon best practice research methodologies.

·  Contribute to the effective supervision of Honours and Higher Degree by Research students (as appropriate).

·  Demonstrate citizenship behaviours that align to the UQ values.

·  Show leadership of self through collaboration and active participation in priority activities for the unit.

This is a research focused position. Further information can be found by viewing UQ's Criteria for Academic Performance.

This is a full-time (100%), fixed-term position for up to 2 years at an Academic level A.
