POST SUMMARY

The Irish Longitudinal Study on Ageing (TILDA) is seeking a highly motivated and experienced post-doctoral researcher to work on a prestigious multinational inter-disciplinary epigenomics project. This project initiative ‘Social Circumstances and Epigenomics Promoting Health in Three Countries’ saw researchers from the United States, Northern Ireland, and the Republic of Ireland collaborate to submit a single, joint “tri-partite” proposal to the US National Institutes of Health (NIH). The award will strengthen international research to examine how social circumstances and life challenges impact the epigenome and health in later years and is supported by Science Foundation Ireland (SFI) and the Health Research Board (HRB). This unique collaboration will examine social, economic, health and epigenomic data from three national studies of ageing in the family of Health and Retirement studies - the US Health and Retirement Study (HRS), the Northern Ireland Cohort for the Longitudinal Study of Ageing (NICOLA), and The Irish Longitudinal Study of Ageing (TILDA).
