Dear colleagues,

Bournemouth University's Civic Media Hub has just advertised two fully funded MRes studentships in data storytelling (1) and interactive data forecasting (2), to work specifically on a live public sector client brief with NHS England's 'prevention at scale' initiative. Please do forward to anyone you think might be interested in applying.

The successful candidate will work directly with Public Health Dorset, under the supervision of Dr Einar Thorsen and Dr Anna Feigenbaum, founding members of the BU Civic Media Hub and BU Datalabs project (http://www.civicmedia.io<http://www.civicmedia.io/>). The second project will also be co-supervised by Dr Duncan Golicher.

The two projects have been co-created with Public Health Dorset (http://www.publichealthdorset.org.uk<http://www.publichealthdorset.org.uk/>) with the aim to directly impact their organisational practices, while more broadly contributing to the emergent field of data storytelling in public health communication and education. The specific focus of the research within this broader remit will depend on the successful candidate and be negotiated by them in liaison with Public Health Dorset and the supervisory team.

The closing date for applications is Tuesday 2 January 2018 with interviews on 15th January 2018.

All the best,
Anna
