4 weeks ago

London, Greater London, United Kingdom KINGS COLLEGE LONDON Full time

About the role

This role sits within the Department of Perinatal Imaging (name will be changing to Early Life Imaging), King's College London.

The postholder will be based in the School of Biomedical Engineering & Imaging Sciences in King's College London which has a multidisciplinary faculty of clinicians and academics and state-of-the-art facilities for carrying out cutting-edge imaging research. The role also closely liaises with the Neonatal Unit at Guy's & St Thomas', now the largest in the South Thames Region and one of the largest in the United Kingdom having completed in the recent years an expansion project, with 20 Intensive Care, 12 High Dependency and 20 Special Care beds. There are over 7,000 births per year on-site, the majority of which are from a high risk, inner city local population. There is an academic Obstetrics and Fetal Medicine Department. A substantial number of antenatal referrals and in-utero transfers occur due to a wide range of Maternal Medicine tertiary services, including Diabetes, Lupus, Cardiology and Renal Medicine. Fetal Medicine and Fetal Cardiology services also account for many of these.

There is a close working relationship with subspecialties including the departments of Paediatric Neurology and Neurodisability, Fetal and Paediatric Cardiology, Paediatric Cardiothoracic Surgery, Paediatric General Surgery, Paediatric Anaesthesia, , Paediatric Nephrology & Urology, Paediatric Metabolic Medicine, Paediatric ENT, Plastic Surgery (including the Regional Cleft Lip & Palate Service), Orthopaedic Surgery and Genetics

The candidate will support and enable the imaging of children, infants and fetuses in the Evelina Newborn Imaging Centre (based at St Thomas's Hospital) to support the work across a number of imaging studies in the department's portfolio.

These include (but are not limited to): Autism Innovative Medicine Studies-2-Trials (AIMS-2-Trials), which aims to increase our understanding of autism and help develop new therapies to improve health outcomes and quality of life for autistic people; the UK's only ultra-high field (7 Tesla) MR imaging programme which includes high resolution functional imaging studies; simultaneous EEG-fMRI studies of infant learning; the development of novel MR imaging methods on a portable ultra-low field Hyperfine MRI scanner as part of the Gates Foundation UNITY project.

This is a full-time post (40 Hours per week) but candidates wishing to work part time will also be considered. You will be offered a fixed term contract for 12 months in the first instance.
