We are seeking a postdoctoral epidemiologist with a strong interest in aetiological research on cancer to join our team in the Cancer Epidemiology Unit. You will be joining our collaborative research team of epidemiologists and statisticians, conducting innovative epidemiological research on risk factors for cancer based on large prospective cohort studies and consortia.

The main focus of your research will be on the relationships of circulating biomarker concentrations (e.g. protein, metabolic, hormonal, and nutritional biomarkers), and genetic and lifestyle factors with risk for prostate cancer in the EPIC study (the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition cohort) and in other large cohort studies and consortia, including the Endogenous Hormones, Nutritional Biomarkers, and Prostate Cancer Collaborative Group and UK Biobank.

To be considered you will hold (or be close to completion of) a PhD in epidemiology.
