**Introduction**:
The Department of Public Health of the Institute of Tropical Medicine in Antwerp (ITM) aims to conduct public health research of international standing, provide postgraduate education of high quality and engage in service delivery to advance public health. The department is organized into multidisciplinary research groups, including public health specialists, epidemiologists, and social scientists.
The Sexual and Reproductive Health (SRH) group’s objective is to contribute to the improvement of sexual, reproductive, and maternal health mainly (but not only) in low resource settings, through linking scientific research, advanced education, policy support and capacity-strengthening. We use quantitative, qualitative and mixed method inter-disciplinary approaches (e.g. epidemiology, sociology, anthropology, psychology, demography) that explain risk and vulnerability as evidence base for improving outcomes.
The Maternal and Reproductive Health Unit of the SRH Group is looking to strengthen their teaching, research and capacity-strengthening portfolio by recruiting a postdoctoral Research Fellow. The Research Fellow will engage in postgraduate teaching, maternal and reproductive health research, and capacity-building activities with partner institutions.
**Assignment**:
- You will design, organise and deliver teaching on sexual, reproductive and maternal health topics for Masters, postgraduate certificate and short course students.
- You will (co-)supervise Masters and PhD students.
- You will contribute to research capacity-strengthening activities of the SRH Group in the domain of sexual, reproductive and maternal health, mainly through joint activities with partner institutions.
- You will engage in networking, dissemination and advocacy activities in Belgium, Europe and globally.
- You will report to Dr. Lenka Benova and collaborate with others within the Unit and the SRH Group, other research groups within ITM and partners outside ITM, including partners in low
- and middle-income countries.
**_Profile_**:
We are looking for an outstanding Research Fellow who is passionate about conducting high quality teaching and research activities in support of equitable access to sexual, reproductive and maternal health services. This is a unique opportunity to work with a multidisciplinary team, develop your own research ideas, broaden your network of research partners, and contribute to high-quality teaching and capacity-strengthening activities of the SRH Group.
Competencies and skills
- You are clinically trained (i.e., medical doctor, midwife, nurse)
- You hold or are nearing completion of a PhD degree in public health, epidemiology, a related health field or in a social science (sociology, anthropology)
- You have experience conducting rigorous sexual, reproductive and/or maternal health research and publishing in peer-reviewed journals
