**Job Features**

**General Information**
Clinical Research Fellowships offer medical graduates the opportunity for training in a range of research methodologies relevant to modern biomedical science and related specialities. Most Clinical Fellows will undertake research training to consolidate career prospects, by participating in relevant research, which will usually form part of a further qualification or Higher degree (MSc, MD, PhD). The post should make individuals competitive for future NHS teaching hospital appointment or Academic Lecturer/Clinician Scientist awards.

**Research Training**

**Higher Degrees**
Clinical Research Fellows will usually undertake study towards a higher degree in the University of Glasgow. In the first instance the university usually requires this to be an MSc where funding beyond one year is uncertain or until assessment of progress during year one justifies transfer to a PhD programme (without delaying final submission). In addition to an academic supervisor, all postgraduate students will have an independent adviser. Either the adviser or supervisor must be a member of full-time University academic staff.

**Funding Sources**

**Research Training Base**
The Clinical Research Fellow will be based in the School of Cardiovascular and Metabolic Medicine (SCMS) of the University of Glasgow.

**Research Supervision**

**Teaching**
There will be no regular commitment to teaching but research fellows are encouraged to contribute to both problem-based learning and clinical teaching sessions for undergraduate medical students when research commitments allow.

**Assessment of Progress**

**Future**
Research fellows will either return to run-through NHS training, or may become eligible for an academic training post.

**INFORMATION REGARDING COLLEGE AND UNIVERSITY**-The Graduate School of the College of Medicine, Veterinary and Life Sciences supports all aspects of postgraduate training and development. Its Clinical Academic Training Advisory Committee (CATAC) (Chair, Professor Christian Delles) arranges mentorship and support for Clinical Lecturers and Clinical Academic Fellows within the College. The Committee receives annual reports on progress of trainees
