The Faculty of Social Sciences at the University of Helsinki invites applications for the position of  
 
TWO POSTDOCTORAL RESEARCHERS ON SOCIAL INEQUALITIES IN HEALTH
 
for a fixed term period of 3-4 years, starting as agreed.  

The positions are part of an ERC Advanced Grant to Pekka Martikainen and the newly established Max Planck – University of Helsinki Center for Social Inequalities in Population Health.

Our analyses will take advantage of Finnish census and population registration data that are unique internationally in that they longitudinally combine individual and family data representative of a national population for over 50 years. These data are also linked to epidemiological cohort studies that contain behavioral, clinical and genetic information.
 

The successful applicants should contribute to one or more of the research themes of the project. The project is associated with the Helsinki Institute for Demography and Population Health and the newly established Max Planck – University of Helsinki Center for Social Inequalities in Population Health.

Deadline: 14 March
