*** apologies for cross-postings ***

The Max Planck Institute for Demographic Research (MPIDR) is seeking to appoint a full-time postdoctoral researcher to join the Max Planck Research Group on Medical Demography led by Marcus Ebeling.

Description of the Research Group

Medical progress has fundamentally changed how people live with disease and how populations age, respond, and adapt. In many societies today, having a history of disease does not necessarily imply poor health. The Max Planck Research Group on Medical Demography investigates this new demographic reality. Our mission is to advance the field of medical demography by building on existing approaches and developing new conceptual, methodological, and empirical foundations. We address key questions such as how medical advances shape population health over the life course, and how they influence population resilience and vulnerability. We collaborate closely with international research groups in the fields of epidemiology, medicine, and demography.
