STATISTICAL RESEARCH FELLOW
£17,626 - £26,491 per annum
The Health Services Research Unit undertakes a major programme of research
that includes randomised controlled trials, systematic reviews and
descriptive surveys. A vacancy exists within the statistics team. The team
has input across all Unit projects and hence is required to provide advice
on a wide range of statistical issues. Typically, this includes advising on
the design of projects, data management, and undertaking analysis where
appropriate.
You would be expected to interact within multi-disciplinary teams and to
become involved in the activities of the Unit more generally. Recent
statistical issues have included trials using minimisation techniques;
cluster randomised trials; meta-analysis; case-control studies; the
structure of scales; and multilevel modelling. Experience in one or more of
these areas would be useful but not essential. Further training and the
development of relevant research would be encouraged. This post is available
for two years in the first instance.
You will have a degree in statistics or a closely related discipline.
