LSHTM/GSK - We are very excited to announce a Research Fellow vacancy for an
epidemiologist or statistician to work on research into the effects of
prescribed drugs, using large datasets of electronic health records.
This post offers an excellent opportunity to work on the analysis of
data from large-scale UK electronic health records and specialist
cohorts within a large and thriving research group. The post is funded
by GlaxoSmithKline as part of a collaboration between the Epidemiology
group at GSK and the Electronic Health Records research group at LSHTM.
The research will involve working face to face with scientists at both
LSHTM and GSK and will appeal to a candidate with an interest in both
academia and industry. A broad range of research topics are being
explored in the collaboration. These include the use of historic
controls for contemporary studies of drug effects, finding better ways
to determine analysis strategies in the face of complex prescribing
records and safety signal detection using routine care data.
