EPHE Lab

Opportunities

Join the lab

Work on questions that matter, in places they matter most

We take students and researchers who want to understand how place and environmental change shape health. The lab is not taking general applications at the moment; any position we advertise is listed below, with its own way to apply.

What this is, both ways

What the lab offers

  • Supervision across two universities and two disciplines — health geography and public health.
  • A live project from your first term, not a training exercise.
  • Fieldwork, and the methods training to do it properly.
  • Co-authorship on what you help produce.

What the lab asks

  • A question you actually want to answer, not a topic you can tolerate.
  • Willingness to work with communities on their terms.
  • Care with data, and honesty about what it does not show.
  • Writing — early, often, and rewritten.

How applying works

Four steps, about three weeks

  1. You send the form

    Your CV and a few paragraphs on what you want to work on. Fifteen minutes, not a weekend.

  2. We read it

    Both principal investigators read every application. If your interests fit a project we are running, or one we want to start, you will hear back within three weeks.

  3. We talk

    A conversation about the research, the funding, and whether the lab can support what you want to do. We would rather say so early.

  4. You apply to the programme

    A place in the lab is not a place at the university. If it fits, we will tell you which programme to apply to and what its deadlines are.
