Postdoctoral Position in University of Siena: Economics of Vaccination
Deadline: THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 26, 2020
For all those interested,
I am opening a post-doc position at the University of Siena.
Here below is a brief description:
Failed compliance to vaccination protocols for typical infectious diseases and seasonal flu has a big impact on the economy, also because this topic induces polarization in the public opinion. Covid19 makes this problem even bigger.
The research group has been working on these themes since 2018, and has developed an app for running online experiments.
The candidate will collaborate as coauthor on research projects, helping on at least one of the following points:
• ideation and development of analytical models to study attitudes towards vaccination;
• ideation and realization of behavioral experiments on the same topic, and maintenance of the app AppLab that we use for this purpose.
I am sorry but the bureaucracy involved is non trivial and the deadline for applying is close: THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 26.
The call can be found in this list: https://www.unisi.it/node/12841 (the one with the words "THE ECONOMICS OF VACCINATION" in it).
From there you find 4 documents in Italian:
