About this position
Nantes Université is recruiting a postdoctoral researcher within the POPS research unit, which studies prevention, healthcare organisation and patient pathways in primary care. The unit combines epidemiology, clinical research, humanities and social sciences, and participatory research. The position is embedded in the deprescribing work group in axis 1 of the team.
The main project, ABC-MG, is a pragmatic, real-world, cluster-randomized primary-care trial examining whether selective reporting of antibiotic susceptibility testing influences general practitioners’ prescribing of broad-spectrum antibiotics for women with E. coli urinary tract infections. The study links microbiological urine-culture episodes with antibiotic dispensing data and uses a 24-month observation period around the intervention.
The postdoctoral researcher will coordinate data management, monitoring and analysis; contribute to analyses conducted on the secured SNDS platform with the Nantes CHU methodologist Aurélie Gaultier; draft the initial report and scientific article; and anticipate ancillary analyses under the functional responsibility of the principal investigator.
During the second phase, the researcher will work on the DEPRESCRIPP-DAM population-based deprescribing trial, preparing its report and scientific article. The role also includes preparing and submitting a grant proposal in the field of deprescribing. The research environment brings together Nantes Université, CHU de Nantes, Inserm, IRT Jules Verne and partner grandes écoles, with access to a broad interdisciplinary primary-care research community.
