Manchester BRC drives forward experimental medicine across a range of research themes which are grouped into four clusters: Inflammation, Cancer, High Burden Under Researched Conditions and Disease Complexity as areas where the region has demonstrable strength and which will work collaboratively to improve patient outcomes and embed, build and accelerate personalised health and care for all.

This post is for a RHEUMATOLOGY CLINICAL RESEARCH FELLOW for the INTEGRATIVE CARDIOVASCULAR theme of the BRC. Some travel within the Trust and Greater Manchester may be required.

The integrative cardiovascular theme within the BRC wish to appoint a clinical research fellow to the emergent and exciting field of 'cardio-rheumatology', to undertake a cross-disciplinary project on cardiovascular disease (CVD) in immune mediated inflammatory disease (IMID).

During this position, the post-holder will undertake a range of activities including: establishing a deeply phenotyped cohort of patients with IMID that fall across the spectrum of CVD from 'at risk' to incident and prevalent disease, utilising clinical, blood and/or standard of care sensitive imaging tools such as cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging. There will be opportunity to focus on a specific IMID such as systemic sclerosis and its cardiovascular (and/or cardiovascular-respiratory) involvement. The clinical translational project will lead to a higher research degree and the post-holder will be expected to apply for external fellowship(s).
