  • Deliver context-appropriate training for in-country clinical and epidemiological research staff
Collaboration and Teamwork
  • Work closely with international and local collaborators in LMIC settings
  • Ensure integration of clinical and epidemiological data collection strategies
  • Support CSRI’s research goals through effective communication, coordination, and problem solving

The successful candidate will possess:

  • Experience using analytical and statistical tools relevant to health research
  • Research experience in LMIC settings, preferably in Africa
  • Proficiency in English (IELTS > 6.5 or TOEFL > 92, or equivalent)
