The Faculty of Education at the University of Cambridge wishes to appoint an enthusiastic and motivated Research Associate to work on a programme of research focussed on the promotion of mental health in the first years of life. The research is funded by UK Research and Innovation through a fellowship award held by Dr Christine O'Farrelly. The overall programme of work addresses key research questions relating to the promotion of young children's mental health. The goal of the research programme is to develop new intervention approaches that respond to the priorities and needs of families and the service contexts in which they are delivered. The research programme is grounded in the principles of participatory design and co-production approaches, working with and for families and practitioners. The project is being undertaken in collaboration with international researchers and NHS and third sector partners.
