We would like to invite applications for a Postdoctoral research position in the project “Intergenerational pathways to cardiometabolic disease” which is funded by the Novo Nordisk Foundation.
The Postdoc will use an epidemiological approach to investigate how body size at child and adult ages and other relevant exposures relates to the risk of cardiometabolic disease within and across generations. Within this project, there is scope to develop studies examining different aspects of intergenerational risk transmission, risks across the lifecourse and outcomes ranging from cardiometabolic disease risk factors to hard endpoints. The work will be conducted using data from existing Danish studies, cohorts and registers.
