VenueBarcelona
What We Are Looking forWe are seeking one talented and highly motivated computer programmer to join the research team of Dr. Joan Ballester at ISGlobal within the framework of various research projects, mainly the ERC Consolidator grant EARLY-ADAPT. The team is at the forefront of environmental epidemiology by analysing a novel database of human health in Europe, which incorporates a range of environmental, socioeconomic and demographic variables and novel digital data streams at different spatiotemporal scales.

EARLY-ADAPT ("Signs of Early Adaptation to Climate Change", 2021-2026, Grant Agreement 865564) is a European Research Council Consolidator Grant (ERC-2019-CoG), whose overarching aim is to jointly analyse the multiple drivers of recent trends in human health. Its driving hypothesis is that societies are starting to adapt to climate change, but the effectiveness of early adaptation is heterogeneous in space and time. EARLY-ADAPT is creating a daily, continental-wide database with multiple health outcomes, climate variables, air pollutants, desert dust and winter infectious diseases. The database is being used to model the relation between health and the environment, quantify the modifying effect of the societal factors, and perform a predictability analysis to determine the most realistic adaptation scenarios for the projections of future health. The project will allow to detect, understand and quantify the inequalities in adaptation between countries, regions, cities and social groups. More information is available here. KEY RESPONSIBILITIESThe main duty of the chosen candidate is to contribute to the creation of a new research database. SPECIFIC DUTIESTowards this aim, the chosen candidate will have to:Search for and download open access data sources.Implement harmonization protocols for a successful integration of data.Write and run scripts to transform the data into a common data format.Interact with the scientists of the group to adapt the data to their scientific needs.
Additionally, the chosen candidate will contribute to other research lines of the group, such as the development of operational health early warning systems driven by real-time weather forecasts. The candidate is expected to closely interact with all the other members of the team, in order to better design and update the database, and address any need in terms of data, programming and specialized software. The candidate is not requested to contribute to scientific research, but any interest in that regard will be taken into consideration.
