Kingston upon Hull, United Kingdom Hull University Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust Full time

We are excited to advertise for TWO enthusiastic Year 2 or 3 Pharmacy students to undertake NIHR Undergraduate Internship Programme. The NIHR Undergraduate Internship Programme is a scheme designed to engage and attract students in the early stages of their academic studies to consider a career in health and social care research. These internships are part of collaborative project between Hull University Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust and University of Bradford. The placements are funded through the NIHR (National Institute for Health and Care Research) award.

The 6-week internships will be supervised by Dr Kristina Medlinskiene (Hull University Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust) and Dr Justine Tomlinson (University of Bradford).

During the internship you will be involved with NIHR funded national studies conducted at Hull University Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust that focus on medication prescribing for older patients (e.g., deprescribing, improving adherence, care at transitions). You will also have opportunity to be part of research projects conducted by Consultant or Advanced Practice Pharmacists and gain insight in their roles. Furthermore, you will have an opportunity to meet wider pharmacy team, including pharmacy technicians and pharmacists. You will gain understanding how important research is for clinical practice, pharmacy team development, and how it can be embedded into clinical practice.

We will support and provide training to complete the assigned research project tasks. Alongside your project work, we will offer you a range of experiential activities to develop your knowledge of research and clinical academic careers.

You will be linked to research projects delivered at HUTH, thus you will be exposed and involved to a varied extent in the following activities:
