Postdoctoral Researcher in Innovation, Knowledge Translation, Organisational Change and Research Impact
Nuffield Department of Primary Care Health Sciences, ROQ, Woodstock Road, Oxford
Grade 7: £31,076 - £38,183 with discretionary range to £41,709 p.a.
An opportunity has arisen for a postdoctoral researcher to join an academic study of research partnerships, innovation and impact as part of the ‘Partnerships for Health, Wealth and Innovation’ (PHWI) cross-cutting theme of the Oxford NIHR Biomedical Research Centre (BRC). The programme of work is led by Professor Trisha Greenhalgh and based in the Radcliffe Observatory quarter in central Oxford.
The post offers considerable scope for a researcher to develop his or her own independent research study (with a strong focus on ‘partnerships’) while also aligning with the wider programme of ‘research on research’ linked to the Oxford BRC. He or she will develop relationships and research collaborations with relevant PHWI sub-themes and (where relevant) with NHS, industry and third-sector partners.
The scope of the post is broad, but the work programme should involve a scholarly study of one or more of the following: innovation in basic sciences (e.g. drug discovery), technology development, ‘T1’ knowledge translation (basic science to clinical trial), ‘T2’ knowledge translation (application of research findings in the clinical setting), patient and public involvement in drug discovery or clinical trials, research ethics, research co-design, organisational change, and management and governance of large-scale university-NHS-industry partnerships. A strong theoretical framework (for example from sociology of scientific knowledge, science and technology studies, or research policy) is essential.
The post is available full-time and is fixed-term until 31 March 2022 in the first instance.
The closing date for applications is 12.00 noon on 13 March 2017and we plan to hold interviews in the week beginning 27 March 2017.
