MRC Clinical Trials Unit
Research Scientist /Oncology Clinical Fellow
Salary range £40,037 - £48,016 per annum inclusive of location allowances
The Cancer Group of the MRC CTU is looking for high calibre individuals who
wish to develop an interest in clinical trials medicine. Applicants with a
background in medicine, epidemiology or statistics are encouraged to apply.
The main focus of research is the conduct of large oncology Phase III
randomised-controlled trials. Applicants will have responsibility for the
day to day running of trials within the CTU and will gain experience of all
aspects of clinical trials medicine including design, regulatory
requirements, trial management, analysis and publication. Training including
undertaking an MSc in Clinical Trials Medicine is available.
For clinical applicants options exist either for a permanent position or a
2-3 year clinical fellowship. The fellowship would ideally suit applicants
with either MRCP/FRCS or equivalent experience in another discipline and
preferably a national training number. An interest in
urological/gynaecological/gastrointestinal oncology would be an advantage
but the portfolio of work could be developed to match the interests of the
individual. There would be the opportunity to carry out a project that could
be developed into an MD or PhD degree.
For non-clinical applicants an MSc or PhD in Statistics and/or Epidemiology
is required and 3-5 years relevant experience.
Good interpersonal skills, ability to work in a multi-disciplinary
environment and accurate and concise writing skills are required. For an
informal discussion about these posts please contact Dr Ruth Langley
