[Commlist] Research Assistant Post

We currently have a vacancy for a UKRI / AHRC COVID Response project.

Public health measures to mitigate the spread of coronavirus are 
translated into media messaging by organisations that target the health 
of different groups. Engaging experiences of the minority group of men 
who have sex with men (MSM), we will provide rapid evidence on the 
approaches and responses to these messages in relation to using digital 
platforms to connect for sexual purposes.

We must understand MSM’s reception of these messages to impact upon 
policy and practice for this group, shed light on what to look for where 
minorities are concerned, and provide learning about COVID public health 
messaging that will benefit the general population. The University of 
Salford, in collaboration with the University of East Anglia and 
Birmingham City University have been awarded funds to appoint two 
Research Assistants to investigate this area through the UKRI’s Covid 
Response Call and via the Arts and Humanities Research Council.

Knowledge and experience of research related to gender and sexuality in 
a digital context is essential for this project. Additional knowledge 
and experience of digital methods, survey methods, or large scale 
qualitative data analysis is desirable although some training will be 
available.

For an informal discussion about the roles please contact Professor Ben 
Light at (B.Light /at/ salford.ac.uk).

The post is working with myself at the University of Salford, John 
Mercer at BCU and Jamie Hakim, UEA.
