Scotland faces ongoing challenges with persisting health inequalities. These inequalities can affect many aspects of people’s lives, can occur at different stages of life and persist for many years. There are observable inequalities across a wide range of health and care areas, for example, a reduced number of years spent in good health as well as reduced overall life expectancy. This internship covers the areas of Children and Young People’s Health and Population Health. It will make use of data sets available via Research Data Scotland’s Research Access Scheme Approval Pathway [https://www.researchdata.scot/accessing-data/researcher-access-service/ras-datasets-and-variables/] and use data linkage to investigate and report on outcomes of interest in the area of health inequalities, particularly for maternal and childhood outcomes. There is also the option to provide insight into wider areas of population health such as drugs, cancers, mental health etc.
