Clinical Research Fellow

We have an opportunity for a Clinical Research Fellow.

This is a 1-year post to facilitate clinical research experience and training to support several academic and industry funded research projects in Rheumatic diseases, under the supervision of Dr Aurelie Najm in the University of Glasgow.

The focus of the research will relate to Rheumatoid Arthritis, Psoriatic Arthritis and Interstitial Lung Disease. To explore the molecular signatures underpinning RA and PsA, this post will require identification of suitable patients for multiple synovial biopsy based studies including clinical trials, as well as withdrawal and analysis of synovial and skin tissue biopsies.

As a Clinical Research Fellow (CRF) this post will allow the development of research skills and production of data leading to the submission of an MD or PhD degree. [CM1] Although research will form the major component of this post, participation in associated clinical duties and teaching will be incorporated into the job plan.

This post is full time, fixed term for up to 1 year.

For informal enquiries about the role, please contact Dr Aurelie Najm, Aurelie.Najm@glasgow.ac.uk
