Dear colleagues,



I am delighted to share that I am looking for a postdoctoral researcher to join my team at the University of Edinburgh as part of the Wellcome Trust 'FemTech Innovation' project, which sits at the intersection of medical anthropology, science and technology studies, and gender studies. The 3-year position will offer a high degree of independence within a supportive early career environment and the opportunity to conduct fully-funded fieldwork. The researcher will need to have topical interest in women's health, experience conducting ethnographic fieldwork, and expertise in a geographical area outside the US or UK. I am happy to field informal inquiries and encourage you to share the advertisement with your networks!
