Background:


Located in the Department of Public Health, one of three departments at the Institute, our multi-disciplinary group aims to support the development of people-centred, integrated, accountable, equitable and resilient health systems, and to contribute to policy design and decision-making aligned with these goals.

We adopt a systems approach that focuses on the interface between people, policies, systems and the broader political environment, and in practice encourage synergies across our research, education and capacity-strengthening activities and co-production of knowledge in academic and non-academic fora.

Current focal areas of the group include chronic life-long conditions, pharmaceutical systems and policies, urbanisation and health, health systems resilience in conflict-affected and fragile settings, and migration and health.


Work on this 18-month full-time post will involve supporting and initiating research, teaching, and knowledge dissemination activities of the group, under the guidance of Professor Karina Kielmann, who leads the Equity and Health unit within this group.

We are currently expanding a research portfolio that spans intersections across the topical areas of migrant health, mobility, and chronic care, exploring questions related to:

access to health care (especially medicines); chronic illness management; the role of social support; transnational care networks, and patterns of health-seeking in formal and non-formal sectors among different categories of mobile populations in both high-income and LMIC settings.
