Abstract

The Post-Doctor (PD) will participate in the monitoring of the follow-up of the study participants and will have full dedication to the project. The PD will be responsible for the activities for planning face-to-face follow-up assessments, and fieldwork activities. The working plan will include organizing the logistics of fieldwork, supervising data collection and data entry flow on the study server together with the coordination team, and conducting a bibliographic review to support the manuscripts to be prepared. The PD will have direct support from Dr. Alicia Matijasevich to ensure that methodological procedures are followed according to the approved project. In addition, important decisions regarding the progress of the project will be discussed in weekly meetings with the principal investigator of the project (Prof. Dr. Marly Augusto Cardoso). During the scholarship period, the PD must send for publication at least two manuscripts related to the MINA-Brasil Study. (AU)
