Post-Doctoral Researcher in One Health Systems Evaluation
, University of Zurich, Switzerland.
Although one health promises better solutions than the classic single disciplinary approaches, methods and benchmarks for its evaluation are missing. This requires the adaptation of methods from many fields that do not belong to classical health disciplines such as education, collective learning processes, data management, network science, etc. This project is part of the
Network for Evaluation of One Health (NEOH)
The candidate will review existing methods from these fields for applicability to the NEOH framework and identify existing methodological gaps.
