Liverpool, United Kingdom Walton Centre NHS Foundation Trust Full time

CLINICAL FELLOW IN NEUROLOGY

(Neuroimmunology with special emphasis on demyelinating disorders and neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder)

Applications are invited for the position of Fellow in Neurology/Neuroimmunology/Demyelinating disorders with a special emphasis on Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSD) as part of the nationally commissioned NMOSD service based in Liverpool and in collaboration with John Radcliff Hospital, Oxford.

This post is purposely made flexible to suit several groups of applicants, aiming to recruit highly motivated, enthusiastic individuals with a strong research interest. Alternatively, it would be an opportunity for someone who is nearing to or has obtained CCT in neurology to obtain further training in either neuroimmunological or demyelinating disorders. Since NMOSD belongs in both classes, the skills and knowledge acquired in the job, will allow an aspiring neurologist to learn a variety of skills. This is a clinical post but there is ample opportunity to be involved in laboratory research (Neuroimmunology lab /University of Liverpool).

The appointee will be guided and is expected to carry out research. There is a high expectation to be prolific in producing research publications and previous publication experience is highly desirable.
