Liverpool, United Kingdom University of Liverpool Full time

**DynAIRx** (AIs for dynamic prescribing optimisation and care integration in multimorbidity) is a collaborative study involving researchers across the Universities of Liverpool, Leeds, Manchester and Glasgow, with the ultimate aim to improve medication reviews happening in primary care. The study involves undertaking interviews and workshops with clinicians along with 'big data¿ analysis of care records using computer science expertise. This post will focus on supporting the qualitative work within the programme.- DynAIRx aims to develop new, easy to use, artificial intelligence (AI) tools that support GPs and pharmacists to find patients living with multimorbidity (two or more long-term health conditions) who might be offered a better combination of medicines.- We will focus on three groups of people at high risk of rapidly worsening health from multimorbidity:
- 1\. Older people with frailty.- 2\. People with mental and physical health problems.- 3\. Other people with four or more long-term health conditions taking ten or more drugs.- Multimorbidity is becoming more common as the population becomes older and people with long-term health conditions live longer. Currently, people with multimorbidity are treated separately for each condition and prescribed different drugs, each to treat one condition. Taking multiple medicines, or polypharmacy, increases the likelihood of serious side effects.- GPs and pharmacists are encouraged to reduce the number of people taking potentially harmful combinations of drugs. However, there is no easy way of predicting which patients are most likely to benefit from a medication review and prioritising them. The review team is then faced with gathering and making sense of information from records held in different places, and piecing the information together to see how the patient's conditions and treatments changed over time.- We are seeking a research assistant with qualitative research skills to take on a significant facilitating role in supporting the team to organise and deliver research interviews and focus groups, code and analyse transcripts and prepare reports to disseminate findings. You will have an ability to plan, organise and undertake a complex workload with multiple and competing priorities including managing a qualitative study, be competent in coding programmes such as NVivo and have an understanding of ethical and clinical governance procedures.- You will also support the preparation of papers for publication, conference abstracts and formal reports for dissemination to the wider group.-
- The post is available until 31st March 2025 with hybrid/flexible working. When on Campus the role will be based in the William Henry Duncan Building.
