We are seeking an energetic and creative individual to join a globally recognised multi-disciplinary team working on a range of projects examining how different types of diet-related public health policies (e.g. structural vs. information-based policy interventions) impact population-level diet, obesity, disease burden and social inequalities in health as well as developing new research lines in the theme of preventing Non-communicable diseases and reducing health inequalities.
