Trinity College Dublin (Dublin) and KU Leuven (Belgium) is recruiting for two new PhD positions as part of doctoral training linked to the Healthy Adaptation to Pregnancy, Postpartum and Parenthood (HAP3) project. 

HAP3 aims to address the detrimental impact of intergenerational transmission of obesity and mental health problems from parents to infants in the first three years of life. 

  • DC4: PhD Position: Co-creating the online HAP3  intervention  for prevention of obesity in routine care from pregnancy, postpartum and early parenthood 
  • DC10: PhD Position: Implementation of a dashboard for care professionals into routine care from pregnancy, postpartum and early parenthood 

The HAP3 Doctoral Training Network is funded by the European Commission (EC). More specifically, it is part of the EC’s Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions and is a Joint Doctorate Training Network which provides high-level transdisciplinary training to high achieving and committed doctoral candidates. Each candidate will work towards a Joint Doctorate from two European Universities and serve as a “PERINATAL CARE INNOVATOR”. Your work will develop innovative (technical) solutions to effectively address the complex challenges of obesity and mental health problems during pregnancy and early parenthood. 

Professor Joan Lalor, Professor of Maternal Health at Trinity College Dublin, said: “The HAP3 project presents a wonderful opportunity for early career researchers to contribute to research which seeks to improve health outcomes in perinatal care, and achieve a joint doctorate from two of Europe’s leading universities, Trinity College Dublin and KU Leuven. I look forward to working with the successful doctoral candidates who will be based in Trinity.”
