We are seeking an enthusiastic researcher with good *qualitative* skills to
join an experienced international team of researchers investigating
?*Transnational
Migration in South-East Asia and the Health of Children Left Behind*?. The
project is funded by the Wellcome Trust and will involve the development,

study countries of Indonesia, Thailand, The Philippines and Vietnam. You
will work closely with a Postdoctoral Fellow based at the University of St

You will have, or be about to complete, a PhD in a relevant social science

those with research experience in the area of migration and health in
Southeast Asia, as well as expertise in managing multi-country research
