Bangor University is seeking to appoint a Research Officer to its Centre for Health Economics and Medicines Evaluation (CHEME). Applications are invited from post-doctoral researchers with a record of research accomplishments to join the Pharmaceutical Economics, Policy and Prescribing Research (PEPPER) group within CHEME.

This post offers an excellent opportunity for career development and progression, with the successful candidate gaining experience by assessing the cost-effectiveness of health technologies alongside clinical trials. Research will focus initially on personalising treatment to improve kidney health in people living with heart failure.

Applications are welcome from candidates with a PhD (or near completion) in Health Economics or a related discipline.
