The Leverhulme Centre for Integrative Research on Agriculture and Health (LCIRAH) has been established under a generous grant from the Leverhulme Trust to build an intersectoral and interdisciplinary platform for integrating research in agriculture and health, with a focus on international development goals. This Centre is enabling researchers from the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine (LSHTM), School of Oriental and African Studies (SOAS) and Royal Veterinary College (RVC) to work together to develop unifying research approaches and methodologies in ‘AgriHealth’.
As part of this process, LCIRAH is offering four London-based PhD studentships, each 3 years in duration, to start in the 2013/2014 academic year. Studentships will cover fieldwork costs, student stipend, and UK/EU tuition fees. Each studentship will be registered in one of the participating Colleges and jointly supervised by health, economy and agricultural researchers.
