Scientific Researcher: Modelling Infectious Diseases
3 dagen geleden
About the Project
The GRIFFINS Project is a joint initiative of public health and academic institutions in Amsterdam. This project aims to develop a dynamic surveillance framework by integrating data sources such as demographic data, clinical information from hospitals, pathogen genomic data, and epidemiological data.
Using these data sources, the project will adapt and refine predictive models to simulate the spread and burden of infectious diseases, identify transmission hotspots, and inform public health interventions.
About the Role
As a Postdoctoral Researcher, you will play a key role in developing and validating models to better understand and predict infectious disease dynamics.
You will have the opportunity to work at the intersection of epidemiology, clinical medicine, and data science, leveraging one of the most comprehensive health and demographic data sources in the Netherlands.
- Develop, validate, and refine predictive models using retrospective and up-to-date data
- Collaborate with a multidisciplinary team to integrate complex datasets
- Use the model to identify transmission hotspots, predict high-risk populations, estimate disease burden, and simulate various outbreak scenarios
- Design and implement protocols for linking hospital-based Electronic Patient Records (EPIC) and Laboratory Information Systems (LIMS) data to demographic data
- Communicate findings to public health stakeholders and support strategic decision-making for infectious disease control
Profile
We are looking for a candidate with a strong background in modelling, programming proficiency in languages such as Python or R, and experience working with large-scale datasets.
- Doctoral degree in a relevant quantitative field
- Strong programming skills
- Experience in ODE/PDE, stochastic process, and/or agent-based modelling
Salary
We offer a competitive salary ranging from € 3,493 to € 5,504 gross per month based on full-time employment, depending on education and experience, and a year-end bonus of 8.3%. We also offer holiday hours, pension accrual, and reimbursement for public transport travel costs.
Become part of our team and contribute to improving public health outcomes in the Netherlands.
