Clinical Research Fellow

Professor Fergus Gleeson is seeking to recruit a Clinical Research Fellow to join his research group, providing them with an opportunity to study in a high calibre research environment, working towards a DPhil. This fellowship will provide a first class research environment for a young clinician scientist and provide a framework for research and training in the combined fields of basic science and clinical medicine. The fellowship is structured around the existing research programmes in the Imaging in Therapy programme of the Oxford Cancer Imaging Centre, and current research using multimodal functional imaging to better assess tumour characterisation focusing on hypoxia, angiogenesis, the heterogeneity of imaging expression and tumour therapy resistance. The candidate will be required to include a suggested research project in their Fellowship application. Candidates are encouraged to meet with Professor Gleeson to discuss the post. The successful candidate will be a GMC registered Medical Practitioner with a strong academic track record, e.g. a BSc (or equivalent) with a 1st or 2:1; honours or distinction in the MB finals, with an interest in oncological imaging. Evidence of a strong publication record, of which at least one should be a first author publication in a high ranking scientific journal, and basic experience in laboratory science and/or trials are desirable. They should also have good interpersonal and communication skills. This full-time post is offered for 3 years. For any additional information regarding this post please contact Professor Fergus Gleeson via email: fergus.gleeson@.ox.ac.uk . All applicants must complete a short online application form, upload a CV and supporting statement. The closing date for applications is 12.00 noon on Friday 14 June 2013.
