Applications are invited for an exciting new post in the NPEU Clinical
Trials Unit (NPEU CTU). We are looking for someone to play a central
role in the CTU’s research activities which includes taking primary
responsibility for the design and analysis of NPEU CTU randomised
controlled trials, but also providing strategic direction and leadership
on the statistical aspects of the work of the CTU core team. This post
is ideal for a self-motivated statistician/epidemiologist with highly
effective communication skills (written and verbal) who has experience
of designing and analysing clinical trials.
The NPEU CTU is one of 40 UKCRC registered clinical trials units, and
one of two specialist trial units that are part of the Medicines for
Children Research Network funded by the Department of Health. The
ongoing programme of trials evaluates a broad range of interventions for
women and babies in the perinatal health services. The NPEU CTU aims to
maintain its position at the forefront of trials within the perinatal
field by exploring innovative methodology and also by providing support
and training for trials run from outside the CTU. For more information
