A system of continuous demographic surveillance is currently under 
development as part of the KEMRI-Wellcome Trust-Oxford University

cine Research Coast, Kenya. Based on the HRS2 model, the system will 
be a key component in a number of major new research initiatives. We 
are looking for an experienced demographer to improve and maintain 
this system while at the same time developing an independent research 
agenda: the current major focus is on infectious diseases (particu-
larly malaria), disability and the causes of mortality in young chil-
dren. Prospective candidates should hold a PhD in Demography or an 
allied discipline. He/she should have a track record in research de-
mography, preferably in a tropical environment.

This full time appointment will be on the RS II scale (Salary range

and is funded by the Wellcome Trust.
