Sheffield, United Kingdom University of Sheffield Full time

An NIHR Clinical Lecturer post in infectious diseases has been awarded to The Medical School at The University of Sheffield as part of the prestigious UK Clinical Research Collaboration (UKCRC)/ Modernising Medical Careers (MMC) integrated academic training pathway. Further details of the UKCRC/MMC integrated academic training pathway can be found at www.nihr.ac.uk/

The post is ideally suited to individuals wishing to build an academic career in infectious diseases, and in particular those who have already undertaken research and who now wish to continue undertaking research whilst pursuing further training.   You will have evidence of academic achievement and will hold an MD / PhD or equivalent,  have MRCP or equivalent and hold or be eligible to hold an NTN with at least one year remaining prior to CCT.

This is an opportunity to combine clinical training in infectious diseases with a programme of post-doctoral research, providing 50% clinical and 50% academic time.  An Academic National Training Number [NTN(A)] is attached to this post as part of the South Yorkshire rotation in infectious diseases to train for a combined CCT in Infectious Diseases and either Medical Microbiology (MM), Medical Virology (MV) or General Internal Medicine (GIM).

You will join the Division of Clinical Medicine and work alongside clinical and non-clinical academics from infectious diseases, microbiology and respiratory medicine and, with academics in inflammation biology, form the core of the Infection and Immunity theme of the prestigious NIHR Sheffield Biomedical Research Centre (BRC), (a collaboration with Sheffield Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust), and the UoS cross-faculty Florey Institute. Research employs cutting-edge techniques in in vitro and in vivo studies with a variety of pathogens performed across species ranging from fish to man. The research interests of the theme range from basic science to clinical infection and global health, with a particular focus on molecular and cellular pathogenesis, innate and acquired immunity and the prevention of disease through vaccination. 

SYRDITM is one of the largest infectious disease units in the country and consists of 10 substantive NHS consultants and one specialty doctor, including joint posts with virology, acute medicine at STH, microbiology at the Royal Derbyshire and Sexual Health in Rotherham. In addition, 4 academic consultants participate in ward and outpatient activity in rotation throughout the year. Current trainees in the Department include 20 infectious disease specialty registrars, which include one academic clinical lecturer and three academic clinical fellows. All training places are joint appointments with a second specialty: ID/Microbiology ID/Virology or ID/GIM. At any one time, a number of trainees are on placement out-of-programme completing higher degrees or clinical leadership fellowships. 

We are committed to exploring flexible working opportunities which benefit the individual and University.
