About this role
This project aims to pool and harmonize data from multiple pregnancy cohorts and clinical studies across India to understand gestational weight gain (GWG) patterns among Indian women and their association with maternal, fetal, and neonatal outcomes. The study will evaluate the applicability of existing international GWG standards, identify trajectories of weight gain during pregnancy, and assess their relationship with outcomes such as preterm birth, low birth weight, small-for-gestational-age births, gestational diabetes, and hypertensive disorders. Findings from this large-scale secondary data analysis will contribute to developing evidence-based, India-specific recommendations for monitoring and optimizing gestational weight gain during pregnancy.
Responsibilities
- We are seeking a motivated Biostatistician/Research Associate to support a large multi-centre pooled analysis of gestational weight gain (GWG) and maternal-newborn outcomes in India. The role involves data harmonization, management of individual participant data from multiple cohorts, statistical analysis using advanced epidemiological methods, preparation of reports and manuscripts, and collaboration with investigators across institutions. Candidates should have experience in biostatistics, epidemiology, data analysis using R/Stata, and scientific writing. Prior experience with longitudinal data, mixed-effects models, IPD meta-analysis, or maternal and child health research will be an advantage.
- Preferred Qualifications: M.Sc. Statistics/ Biostatistics
- Age Limit: 35 Years

About
The St. John's Research Institute (SJRI) is a part of the St John's National Academy of Health Sciences, which is run by the CBCI Society for Medical Education. From its inception, St. John's has set before it an ideal of excellence in academic courses as well as service to society as a result of which it has truly become holistic both in its outlook and in its approach to the problems of community health.
In 2000, the Academy decided that its commitment to excellence in research required the setting up of an Institute that was dedicated to the pursuit of research and capacity development in St. John's. This vision encompassed improvement of health of the community and patients through research and development of a Center for Excellence in medical research in India.
The Institute was formally inaugurated in September 2004 by His Eminence Cardinal Telespore Toppo.
