The Fellowship is directly funded by Edith Cowan University, with additional grant funding from National and Health Medical Research Council to ensure completion of the projects. There will also be opportunity to be involved in broader clinical epidemiological projects to understand the role of nutrition in chronic diseases and novel vascular biomarkers in predicting health outcomes.

The School is looking for a Postdoctoral Research Fellow to lead several clinical sciences and epidemiological projects focusing on improving health outcomes in patients with chronic kidney disease, including patients maintained on dialysis treatment or have received kidney transplants. The research will involve an exploration of novel risk factors of the three most common complications in patients with chronic kidney disease, including cardiovascular disease, infections, and cancer. Understanding the relationship of these novel risk factors and adverse health outcomes will be critical in the development of innovative prediction modelling and develop innovative strategies to improve these health outcomes in patients with chronic kidney disease. These research findings will have direct clinical relevance and will likely lead to a change in clinical practice and potential policy changes in the field of chronic kidney disease. The successful candidate will be expected to:
Conduct and co-ordinate research studies, including independence in conducting advanced statistical modelling and ensure adherence to strict ethical research conduct.
