With us, you are part of an ambitious team analysing unique population-based registry and survey data on mental health of young LGBTQ people over time, aiming to contribute to better and equal mental health for all. The team includes epidemiologists, statisticians, and researchers from The Glosh Research group at KI and the Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights Unit (SRHR) at the Centre for Epidemiology and Social Medicine, Region Stockholm.

You will draft the manuscripts aiming for high impact and leading publications in the research field. You are expected to drive the development of the research field further, propose and lead further research and additional registry data collection, and actively seek research funding. You also assist with the research teams’ epidemiological and other research projects and collaborate with researchers in and outside the research group.
The project is funded by the Swedish Research Council for Health, Working Life and Welfare.
