Senior Locally Employed Doctor in Gynae Oncology
We are inviting applicants for the post of Clinical Research Fellow in Gynaecological Oncology. Candidates should be highly motivated to undertake a postgraduate degree and they will be expected to register (and self-fund) an MPhil with the University of Manchester, with the potential to convert this to an MD degree, depending on academic progress. These are also clinical posts and candidates should be at a level expected of an ST3+ trainee. The split between academic and clinical time is 60%/40%. Candidates who are successful at interview will be expected to apply for Out of Program Research (OOPR) if they are currently in a training post.
This post is ideally suited towards candidates considering future subspecialty training in gynaecological oncology, whilst maintaining clinical skills through working in busy tertiary and secondary care settings.
Aims of the Research Post
* To establish the outcomes of importance to patients and clinicians undertaking endometrial cancer clinical research.
* To describe the use of primary cytoreductive surgery and neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by interval debulking surgery for advanced endometrial cancer across the UK.
* To compare survival outcomes for primary cytoreductive surgery and neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by interval debulking surgery for the treatment of advanced endometrial cancer across different molecular subgroups.
Clinical Responsibilities
The Clinical Research Fellow will be supervised by a team of consultants. The fellow will need to respect the roles of others within a multidisciplinary team and communicate with them appropriately. The weekly timetable will vary. Clinical duties may include sessions in outpatients, theatre and ward rounds, or other specialist sessions. Research days are usually fixed.
