National University of Ireland Galway

Postdoctoral Researcher - “To quantify the effects of COVID related public interventions in Ireland”, HRB Clinical Research Facility, NUI Galway (NUIG RES 161-21)

Applications are invited from suitably qualified candidates for a short-term full time specific purpose position as a Postdoctoral Researcher with the HRB Clinical Research Facility at the National University of Ireland, Galway. This position is funded by SFI and is available from 7-Sep-2021 to 14-Oct-2021 (5 weeks).

This model is used to retrospectively describe the evolution of the COVID-19 pandemic and to forecast the outcome of applying public health measures in Ireland in the first year of the epidemic. An interactive web-based application is currently being developed to help decision makers to assess the likely impact of a public health measure on how quickly the virus spreads, the costs and effects on the health system and the likely outcome for people in Ireland. The app will also map out potential alternative interventions and assess their likely outcomes for comparison.
