Dundee, Dundee City, United Kingdom NHS Scotland Full time

NHS Scotland is committed to fostering an inclusive and diverse workforce, promoting equality and eliminating unlawful discrimination. Our goal is to create a truly representative workforce where each employee feels valued and empowered to contribute their best.

The Neuroprogressive and Dementia Research Network is a well-established organization funded by the Chief Scientist Office. Our primary objective is to support and facilitate the conduct and delivery of clinical trials in dementia and neurodegenerative diseases within the NDN portfolio. Dr Tom Russ, Consultant Old Age Psychiatrist NHS Lothian, serves as the NDN Champion, while Jacqui Kerr, Network Manager based in NHS Tayside, oversees the network's operations.

A strong background in working with individuals living with dementia or neuroprogressive disease, or research experience, is highly desirable.

Our current projects include co-researching post-diagnostic support and dementia, as well as exploring clinical trial support for people with Parkinson's disease. Regular meetings with researchers provide valuable input into their work. Experience with various research methods would be advantageous, as we engage in clinical trials, mixed methods, and observational studies.

Our top priority is to ensure that individuals with lived experience have choice and opportunity to participate in research-related activities. We strive to create a positive experience, where our Partners in Research feel heard and valued for their contributions.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Facilitate online and in-person groups
  • Co-design and develop research-related materials
  • Contribute to co-research initiatives

Requirements:

  • Experience working with individuals living with dementia or neuroprogressive disease
  • Research experience
