An exciting opportunity has arisen to work in the Diagnostics group on a project funded by the Foundation of Innovative Diagnostics (FIND). The post holder will work on delivering key aspects of SARS-CoV-2 diagnostics.

This is an exciting opportunity for a Programme Officer, with experience in health promotion, to join our tsetse control project, Trypa-NO! 2, in northwest Uganda.

Tsetse control operations, using Tiny Targets, have been implemented in Uganda since 2011 and the project has now moved to a stage where control is being withdrawn from areas in a phased manner. The Programme Officer will work with the Programme Manager (PM) and Senior Technical Officer (STO) at LSTM and with COCTU, the national control programme in Uganda, to develop communication tools for use in communities where control is being withdrawn.

An exciting opportunity has arisen for an experienced Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Manager to work as part of the HR Team to progress our equity and inclusion agenda.  Joining an established and proactive team in a leadership and strategic role, you will be responsible for engagement with stakeholders across the School to develop initiatives that drive inclusion, foster trust and ultimately result in an environment of inclusion.

Innovative Vector Control Consortium (IVCC) works globally to facilitate innovative approaches to preventing mosquito-borne diseases (e.g., malaria, dengue, etc.) and tackle the growing threat of resistance by directly targeting the vector that transmits disease. Where vector control has been consistently applied in the past (2010-2015), the results have been impressive, with 78% of averted clinical cases of malaria being attributed to insecticidal treated nets (ITNs) and indoor residual spraying (IRS). However, the success of vector control tools is threatened by the development and spread of insecticide resistance.

An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Post-Doctoral Research Associate to join our interdisciplinary team, at the Malawi Liverpool Wellcome Research Programme in Blantyre, Malawi.

This role will form part of a National Institute for Health Research (NIHR) funded project and you will be focused on developing and implementing interventions to prevent healthcare associated infection (HAI), an area for which there are still gaps in the processes of translating the best evidence into practice. In the Malawi context, it is important to know which Infection Prevention and Control (IPC) implementation strategies are the most effective to reduce HAI.

The aim for the role is to support a programme of work in developing effective, acceptable and scalable interventions to reduce HAI in Africa.

You will evaluate current IPC practice in hospitals in Southern Malawi and explore whether and how the WHO framework for IPC implementation can be used, how it may be adapted to the Malawian setting and any barriers / enablers there are to its application.
