Water Quality Microbiology

The University of Notre Dame seeks to appoint a postdoctoral fellow in Water Quality Microbiology to support a multi-year project on Innovative Solutions to Interlinked Water Insecurity, Poverty, and Poor Health in Africa’s Urban Slums, sponsored by the Notre Dame Poverty Initiative. The Project’s long-term goal is to understand how poverty interacts with water insecurity to exacerbate health disparities in slums and develop interventions to address these intertwined challenges. The postdoctoral scholar will be advised by an interdisciplinary team of PIs, namely Kyle Bibby (Environmental Engineering), Ellis Adams (Geography and Environmental Policy), Liz Wood (Global Health), Mat Sisk (GIS), and Santosh Kumar (Developmental Economics). Candidates should be available to travel to Malawi for fieldwork. The initial appointment will be for one year with the possibility for renewal subject to performance and funding availability.
