Allschwil, Schweiz Swiss TPH Vollzeit

The Swiss Tropical and Public Health Institute (Swiss TPH) is a world-leading institute in global health with a particular focus on low
- and middle-income countries. Associated with the University of Basel, Swiss TPH combines research, education and services at local, national and international levels. 900 people from 80 nations work at Swiss TPH focusing on infectious and non-communicable diseases, environment, society and health as well as health systems and interventions.

Within the Department of Epidemiology and Public Health (EPH), our Unit “Environmental Exposures and Health” (EEH) is focused on research related to the many environmental exposures: including air pollution, noise, airborne pollen, heatwaves, green space and electromagnetic fields.

In the framework of the EU/SERI funded study GOLIAT (5G expOsure, causaL effects, and rIsk perception through citizen engagement) a PhD study is offered for an on-going epidemiological study on the effects of eMedia use of adolescents on cognitive functions, behavior and health related quality of life including mental health. We will conduct a prospective study in the Basel area (BS/BL) and Central Switzerland with one year of follow-up. Thereby a main aim is to differentiate between biophysical and psychological pathways. The former relates to potential effects related to radio frequency electromagnetic fields (RF-EMF) emitted by wireless communication devices; and the latter refers to aspects not related to RF-EMF such as use in the bed after lights out, addictive usage pattern or extensive social network use.
The advertised PhD project will focus on the psychological pathway complementing our research team working on other aspects of the study. The main tasks will be to help with the data collection at various schools. Further, the PhD student will be responsible for the data analysis in collaboration with other European children and adolescent cohorts.
