Funding for the Executive Dean's PhD Studentship in Experience-based co-design for effective physical activity interventions with working age adults living with multiple long-term conditions
Found in: beBee jobs GB - 2 weeks ago
The team of Dr Hunt, Dr Nolan, Prof Norris, and Dr Bailey at Brunel University London is offering a fully funded PhD studentship to co-design a physical activity intervention for working-age adults living with multiple long-term conditions (MLTC). Based in and funded by the College of Health, Medicine and Life Sciences, this studentship offers a full-time annual London rate stipend estimated at £21,237 (including London weighting) and Home/EU tuition fees, for a maximum of 36 months.
The Department of Life Sciences holds a Silver Athena SWAN Award and is committed to equality of opportunity and advancing women's careers.
The start date will be 1st October 2024.
Overview
MLTC is the co-existence of two or more chronic conditions. In the UK, the majority of people living with MLTC are less than 65 years old, with 2.5 million people out of paid work due to MLTC.
Physical activity is an effective intervention for managing MLTC, but there is limited research in working-age populations. Increased physical activity levels in working-age people with MLTCs may be related to remaining in and/or returning to paid work.
This studentship will explore and understand the experiences of physical activity in diverse working-age adults living with MLTCs, and use experience-based co-design to develop an inclusive physical activity intervention to support this group to live well. The studentship will address this using rigorous qualitative methodologies, including creative co-production methods.
The successful candidate will be supervised by leading experts in this field:
- Dr Emily Hunt
- Dr Claire Nolan
- Professor Meriel Norris
- with developmental support provided by Dr Daniel Bailey
For informal discussions about this studentship, please contact Dr Emily Hunt ).
Eligibility
Candidates should have an undergraduate degree (first or upper second class) or equivalent qualification in health, physiotherapy, sport science, behavioural science, psychology or a related subject. A Masters qualification in a relevant area and/or previous experience in qualitative methodologies or creative research methods would be desirable but not essential. Applicants who have not been awarded a degree by a University in the UK will be expected to demonstrate English language skills to IELTS 7.0 (minimum 6.5 in any section).
