We are seeking a highly motivated PhD researcher to contribute to the development of a national alcohol risk index.

About the Project

Alcohol consumption is a significant public health concern in Australia, contributing to a substantial burden of disease. The successful candidate will be part of a multidisciplinary team working on identifying times, places, situations, and development stages that elevate alcohol risks.

The project aims to develop and validate tools or instruments for policymakers and governments to reduce alcohol harms and promote the health of Australians. This involves collaborating with stakeholders to contextualise these harms and work towards implementing evidence-based solutions.

The research will take place at Turning Point, Australia's leading national addiction treatment, training, and research centre, based in Melbourne, Australia. As part of this project, you will have the opportunity to work closely with a multidisciplinary cohort of researchers and students.

About the Supervisory Team

You will be supervised by Dr Rowan Ogeil, Senior Research Fellow at Monash University, and Dr Bosco Rowland, Statistician at Turning Point. Both supervisors have extensive experience in designing and evaluating health behaviour interventions, randomised control trials, and longitudinal studies.

They will provide guidance and support throughout your PhD journey, ensuring you meet the requirements for admission to a PhD at Monash University.
