Job description

As a PhD candidate, you will be part of the eHealth Junior collaboration within the 'Research on Routes by Consortia' program of the NWO (Netherlands Organisation for Scientific Research). The eHealth junior project aims to develop a platform with high-quality apps for 1 million chronically ill children. The apps detect and prevent psychological problems and promote play behavior, with the mission of ensuring that these children can lead a happy life and grow up resilient despite their illness.

As a PhD candidate, you will contribute to the study in several ways. First, you will work on the development of an instrument for measuring and valuing the well-being of young people. In doing so, you will investigate which aspects are particularly important for the well-being of children and translate them into a well-being instrument, which will then be validated. In addition, using this instrument, you will also investigate the cost- effectiveness of the apps, including the costs of the intervention and its implementation.

In addition to your role in this research (80% of your time), you will also participate in teaching within ESHPM and take courses in relevant areas.
