FELLOWSHIP FOR THE ANALYSIS OF NHS RESEARCH Applications are invited for an NHS Research Fellowship of three years in the first instance. The Fellow would join a small team led by the Director of the Health Economics Research Group, Professor Martin Buxton, conducting innovative research relating to the benefits from health research. The post holder will analyse the research outputs of the NHS, using data provided to the NHS as part of their membership of the Research Outputs Database - a dataset of biomedical research papers developed by the Wellcome Trust. The Fellow will produce policy-relevant information about NHS research (including the amount, quality, and nature of the articles resulting from the NHS and other funding sources) and will also be expected to develop academic outputs on research evaluation. Applications will be considered from any suitably qualified and experienced researchers, but a background in epidemiology, statistics or bibliometrics, or experience with research funding and management, might be particularly appropriate. It is hoped to appoint at, or close to, spinal point 11 of the RA.II scale - £23,256 (plus London Weighting). For an application form and further details please send a self-addressed envelope to the Recruitment Section, Human Resources, Brunel University, Uxbridge, Middlesex UB8 3PH or telephone 01895 812304 (24-hour answerphone) or e-mail us on [log in to unmask] quoting post reference number 6107.
