HDR UK (Health Data Research UK) and The Alan Turing Institute are delighted to announce that applications are now open for the next PhD Programme in Health Data Science cohort, starting in 2021.

The programme is a collaboration between HDR UK, The Alan Turing Institute and run in partnership with seven leading UK universities and is funded by the Wellcome Trust.

The four-year funded doctoral programme provides in-depth training for graduates interested in bringing their mathematical, statistical, and computational skills to health data science.

We are looking for students who want to make a difference. People who want to work together to combine statistics and computation skills within a health setting to overcome existing challenges and look to develop new opportunities.

You will develop your background in quantitative science (e.g. maths, statistics, physics, engineering, computing) and learn new skills within the health and biomedical communities, so that together you can undertake ground-breaking research.
