The School of Health Sciences is seeking a Research Fellow to work on an NIHR Health Services and Delivery Research funded project to undertake a realist review of evidence into what works to support oncology staff to engage with, communicate and act on mainstreaming genomic testing information. This review will lead to evidence based recommendations and targeted outputs which may generate impact over the long term by helping to lead to an increase in genomic referral rates, and by enhancing preventative care and thereby reducing late cancer diagnosis.
This is an excellent opportunity for a post-doctoral health services researcher or social scientist with realist review experience, and preferably with a knowledge of genomics, cancer and/or NHS workforce. The researcher will be supported by co-PIs Dr Ruth Abrams (University of Surrey) and Dr Chris Jacobs (University of Surrey) and the wider research team.
Sitting within the University’s Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences, the School of Health Sciences has achieved substantial success and is currently ranked 4th by the Complete University Guide 2020 and 4th by the Times and Sunday Time Good University Guide 2020. The School is a leading provider of undergraduate and postgraduate education and is in the top 10 in the UK for research following the recent Research Excellence Framework assessment. In addition to this, we have been awarded Gold for our Teaching Excellence Framework (TEF).
We are looking for a post-doctoral researcher with skills in realist methodology and excellent project management to lead this review. They will also need to be able to engage in deep critical thinking to develop theoretical insights, have excellent verbal and written communication skills, the ability to work independently and contribute positively to a remote team culture. The successful candidate will be responsible for undertaking the data collection, data extraction and synthesis as well as support the write up of the final report and the production of various dissemination materials with support from other members of the team.
Studies have shown that women and other minoritised groups are less likely to apply for jobs unless they meet every single criteria. In the School of Health Sciences, we are dedicated to building a diverse, inclusive, and authentic workplace, so if you are excited about this role but your experience does not align perfectly with what is stated, we encourage you to contact us to discuss. You may be just the right candidate for this or other roles. Further information about the University and the School of Health Sciences can be found at http://www.surrey.ac.uk/school-health-sciences.
