Senior Lecturer/Lecturer in Medical Statistics.

The Institute of Ophthalmology and the Department of Statistical 
Science, University College London, are seeking to recruit an 
investigator in Medical Statistics with the aim, in the long term, 
that the appointee might direct a Division of Medical Statistics 
in the Institute.  The Institute of Ophthalmology received a 5* 
rating in the last RAE and has a distinguished record of achievement 
and scholarship. Researchers will benefit from an extremely 
stimulating environment for clinical and academic research. An 
appointment will be made at Senior Lecturer or Lecturer level 
epending on experience and track record ie. from £32,510 to 
£36,740 basic salary or £17,555 to £30,967 basic salary plus 
London Allowance of £2,134.  Appointment at Lecturer level will 
be made for five years in the first instance with a review after 
three years.  At Senior Lecturer level, appointment will be made 
on an open contract.

Applicants will be highly motivated researchers who have a record 
of statistical research publications in recognised journals and 
experience in or an aptitude for collaborative research. The 
appointee will spend at least 50% of his/her time engaged in 
collaborative research at the Institute and in developing a 
personal research programme related to the development of 
statistical methodology.  The expectation is that the appointee’s 
personal research programme should partially link to the needs of 
the clinical, epidemiological and biological studies within the 
Institute. The appointee will spend a proportion of time at the 
Department of Statistical Science, making a contribution to the 
teaching and research activities of that department.  

Preliminary enquiries should be made to Professor Vern Farewell, 
Professor of Medical Statistics in the Department of Statistical 
Science (tel. 020 7679 1865, fax 020 7813 2801, email 
[log in to unmask]) or the Director  of the Institute of 
Ophthalmology, Professor Adam Sillito ([log in to unmask]; 
tel 020 7608 6805). Formal applications should include a full 
CV, research proposal and the names of three referees and should 
be sent to Professor Sillito at the Institute of Ophthalmology, 
Bath Street, London EC1V 9EL. 

It is hoped that an appointment can be made by the end of February 
2001.
