About this position

Postdoctoral Researcher and Project Coordinator at the Barcelona Institute for Global Health (ISGlobal) in Barcelona, Spain, working on FLEX4HEALTH, a Horizon Europe project focused on scaling federated health data analysis across Europe.

The post sits within ISGlobal’s Barcelona Research Group in Environmental Epidemiology and the Health Analytics Hub. The selected researcher will help connect cohort-study communities with European research infrastructures and support the scientific, governance and community-building activities that underpin the project. FLEX4HEALTH brings together major infrastructure and data-analysis components, including BBMRI, ELIXIR and EIRENE, alongside the open-source MOLGENIS data catalogue and DataSHIELD privacy-preserving analysis platform.

The role combines coordination and research-facing work. The postdoctoral researcher will help implement the project work plan, coordinate interactions across ISGlobal, UMCG and wider research-infrastructure communities, and contribute to scientific and technical outputs. A central part of the work is helping develop governance for federated data use, aligning stakeholder roles and decision-making structures, and supporting collaborative workflows across partners.

The position is embedded in a multidisciplinary environment that combines environmental and life-course epidemiology, exposome science, multi-omics, biostatistics and privacy-preserving analytics for sensitive health data. ISGlobal’s broader research setting includes major cohort and exposome networks and advanced DataSHIELD analyses, offering a strong setting for interdisciplinary and policy-relevant health research.

Day-to-day activities include organising meetings and community conferences, gathering requirements from data holders and research communities, supporting partner onboarding, coordinating technical contributions to catalogues and analysis services, and preparing guidance, webinars, workshops, deliverables, reports, presentations and manuscripts. The post also involves representing FLEX4HEALTH in relevant European consortium meetings, workshops and conferences.

The appointment is a full-time temporary postdoctoral contract based in Barcelona, with work linked to collaboration between Barcelona and Groningen and to the broader European research-infrastructure landscape.
