Manchester University has an increasing reputation for studies in the 'contemporary history' of British medicine. We have used the Manchester Region as a 'laboratory' for studies of Public Health Politics, of Hospital development, of minority ethnic clinicians, and of the reconfiguration of bio-medical sciences. The present vacancy represents a substantial development of this research programme -- to help research and write a history of the Manchester Faculty of Medicine and its associated hospitals and departments since WWII -- a pioneer analysis of the interplays of research programmes, teaching and service developments, viewed in national and international contexts.
The post would suit a historian of modern medicine, science or allied field, with a recent (or imminent) PhD, who wishes to develop their profile in recent history of medicine. It might also suit a PhD graduate in social sciences with a demonstrably strong interest in recent medical and political history and a determination to train as a historian.
