Section for Health Data Science and AI

Department of Public Health

University of Copenhagen

We are looking for one Postdoc (4 years) and one PhD Student to join our research project “Pesticides and Human Health”. The positions are fully funded through a grant from the Novo Nordisk Foundation. The start date for both positions is 1 September 2026.

Research project
Pesticides are widely used in agricultural production to combat unwanted insects and fungi around crops, thereby increasing output per acre. We humans are exposed to pesticides daily both through our diet and through the environment. This happens, for example, through the air we breathe.

We still lack answers pertaining to the public health consequences of indirect pesticide exposure. Pregnant women are particularly vulnerable to environmental impacts, as exposure to toxic substances can be transferred to the unborn child via the placenta and thus affect the development of the fetus. This can, for example, result in the mother losing her child or the child being born with congenital malformations.

This research project will investigate whether there is a causal relationship between indirect exposure to pesticides through the air and population health. We will investigate how pesticides affect the population's fertility, pregnancy outcomes, and children's health and education.

Postdoc position

Duties and Responsibilities

As a postdoc on the project, you are expected to:

• Develop and co-author with the other project members on research papers.
• Participate in workshops, seminars, and conferences.
• Teach and disseminate your research

• Experience with statistical software, e.g., Python, Stata, R, or SAS.

Application requirements

• Motivated application (max one page)
• Project description (max. 10,000 characters incl. spaces) not including bibliography). In your project description, we invite you to outline one research idea within the scope of the overall research project. You should focus on one research question you would like to answer and which approaches and methods you will apply. The exercise is designed to assess your research maturity and interests – specifically, your ability to identify meaningful questions, conceptualize a feasible research framework, and think through possible methods of analysis. Please note, you are not necessarily expected to pursue this particular idea during your postdoc; rather, this outline allows us to evaluate your potential as a researcher.
• CV, including list of publications
• Diploma and transcripts of records. If the PhD is not completed, a written statement from the supervisor will do, including the expected date of defence.

PhD position

185136 - Teaching Fellow (Departmental Lecturer) in Economics

Grade 8: £49,119 - £58,265 annum (with a discretionary range to £63,489 annum)

The Department of Economics is seeking to employ a Teaching Fellow (Departmental Lecturer-TF/DL) in Economics. The post is tenable for three years, and the successful candidate must be available to start no later than the autumn of 2026, as the role is currently vacant.

The principal task of the Departmental Lecturer will be to work with academic colleagues in the Department of Economics and with professional colleagues within the Saïd Business School to develop teaching materials for the MSc in Applied Financial Economics (MAFE) course. The MAFE is a new hybrid (part on-line, part in-person) degree which is due to take its first cohort of students in 26-27. Much of the academic content, which covers topics in micro, macro and financial econometrics, already exists and is currently being taught on the highly successful MSc in Financial Economics (MFE). However, the content of the MFE, which has been developed for in-person teaching, needs to be adapted to the requirements of high-quality on-line learning. It is this adaptation which will form the bulk of the postholder’s responsibility in the first two years in the post. Afterwards, the postholder will be expected to continuously maintain and review the materials for the MAFE and will also be required to deliver lectures and supervision at other programmes within the Economics Department.

The teaching and supervision load will be 336 ‘stint points’, which is the unit in which teaching and supervision contributions are measured. The total amount of teaching and supervision must not normally exceed this without the approval of the Head of Department.

Position Introduction

We are seeking multiple highly motivated postdoctoral researchers to join an interdisciplinary research team engaged in a close collaboration with a leading global ride-hailing platform. This ambitious project aims to advance our understanding of digital marketplace design by studying the interactions between customers and drivers, as well as the platform’s operational and strategic choices.

A defining strength of this collaboration is access to exceptionally rich, high-resolution proprietary data from the platform. This unique dataset supports rigorous empirical analysis and enables high-fidelity modeling and simulation of marketplace dynamics at scale. Research topics span a broad set of questions, including how pricing strategies, incentive structures, dispatch algorithms, and service quality shape the behavior and outcomes of customers, drivers, and the platform itself.

We welcome applicants with strong backgrounds in causal inference, structural estimation, advanced machine learning, and simulation. We are especially interested in scholars eager to apply cutting-edge methods to real- world data to uncover insights that are both academically rigorous and practically actionable. The overarching goal is to inform the design of smarter, more equitable, and more efficient platform ecosystems.

Research from this partnership has been published in Management Science and received multiple awards, including the MSOM Service Management SIG Best Paper Award, INFORMS Service Science Best Paper Award, and the CSAMSE Best Practice Award. Notably, our recommended strategies were adopted platform-wide and led to an 80% improvement in customer experience.

About CEGIS

Centre for Effective Governance of Indian States (CEGIS – pronounced See-Jis) aims to improve lives by helping Indian state governments deliver better development outcomes. We believe that well-functioning governments share at least four features with high-performing organisations: (a) outcome measurement and data driven decision making: which requires appropriate data collection (on both inputs and outcomes), analysis, insight generation, and decision making at different levels of government; (b) effective personnel management including – competency-based hiring and training, adequate staffing, appropriate job assignments, and performance measurement and management; (c) strategic public finance where attention is paid to both the quantity and quality of expenditure and revenue, and where resource allocation is based on evidence and cost-effectiveness; (d) and creating efficient systems to leverage markets and external actors (including for-profit and nonprofit organisations). At CEGIS, we support state governments to build these foundations so that they can deliver development outcomes more effectively.

CEGIS works closely with the political and bureaucratic leadership in Indian states to achieve transformational change. We are currently present in 8 states - Telangana, Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, BTR (Assam), Delhi, Chhattisgarh, Maharashtra and Odisha. We also partner with union agencies/ministries such as Capacity Building Commission, Ministry of Women & Child Development (MoWCD), Ministry of Statistics & Programme Implementation (MoSPI) to share insights from our state-level work and disseminate them broadly. We also collaborate closely with academics and research institutions to ensure our work is grounded in rigorous research and evidence-based practices.

CEGIS Approach and Model of Functioning

Our solutions to enhance governance are co-created with state governments in a “state-led” way, where we focus on deep partnerships with states with an iterative cycle of “think-demonstrate-document-transfer”. We work closely with the top bureaucratic leadership, front-line workers and public officials in Finance, Planning, Human Resources and a few other priority line departments. Many of our solutions reflect ideas outlined in our founder Prof. Karthik Muralidharan’s book (Accelerating India’s Development), and these solutions are constantly being refined based on real-time feedback and are designed to both be customized to the contexts we are working in, and to create templates that can provide the starting point for replication across contexts.

To further explore the mission of CEGIS and the impact we hope to have, please take a look at this video of our CEO, Dr Vijay Pingale.

Position Summary: Economist/Sr. Economist
