　　Recent new research funds from a Canada Research Chair position and Canadian Institutes of Health Research grants have become available for a post-doctoral position at McMaster University in the Departments of Obstetrics and Gynecology/Health Research Methods, Evidence, and Impact (HEI, formerly Clinical Epidemiology & Biostatistics), to lead perinatal meta-analyses including advanced techniques in meta-analysis and network meta-analysis to improve the health of women and infants.

　　The successful candidate will be co-supervised in a vibrant, collaborative environment by Dr. Sarah McDonald, holder of the prestigious Canada Research Chair, a perinatal clinical epidemiologist and high risk obstetrician, and Dr. Joseph Beyene, an academic biostatistician and former Co-Convenor of the Cochrane Statistical Methods Group (SMG). Work will involve application of advanced meta-analytic methods including both conventional and network meta-analysis, examining both maternal and infant outcomes. Opportunities include collaborations with teams in other departments, centres, provinces and internationally. McMaster University, home to the Cochrane Canada Centre and the GRADE approach, is a world-leader in Knowledge Synthesis.

Other opportunities include gaining experience writing research grants and student supervision. The position will be tailored to the applicant’s career goals.

　　The appointment will be for 1-3 years dependent on the candidate’s goals, qualifications, fit and productivity. Salary is commensurate with qualifications.
