Research Assistant The Woolcock Institute is lung health research organization, based at Sydney University, Australia (woolcock.org.au/). The Institute has operated in Vietnam since 2009, and is undertaking large and important operational and epidemiological research projects in collaboration with the National Tuberculosis Program in 9 Provinces, including Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City. Research in Vietnam currently focuses on tuberculosis but we anticipate that it will expand into other areas including programmatic management of chronic lung disease (asthma and COPD), air pollution research and preventive interventions that are relevant to lung health. The Woolcock also runs training in epidemiological and operational research methods for Vietnamese doctors and public health workers. The Woolcock Institute is implementing a research called ACT2G (Two-year follow-up of household contacts and index patients for incident TB) from 2014 to 2015. We are looking for a motivated and skilled people to work with our organization in implementing this major project. Role: This person will conduct research into the diagnosis of TB disease, and its risk factors, within a larger tuberculosis screening project in Ca Mau province (the ACT3 study). This person will conduct the follow-up interviews of TB patients diagnosed as part of the ACT3 study and other related studies. ngocentre.org.vn/jobs/research-assistant-12
