BHF Clinical Research Fellow in Heart Failure and Type 2 Diabetes Position

1 month ago


Leicester, Leicester, United Kingdom University Of Leicester Full time
About the Role

BHF Clinical Research Fellow in Heart Failure and Type 2 Diabetes

We are seeking a highly motivated Clinical Research Fellow to join our vibrant research team at Glenfield Hospital in Leicester. The post is funded by a British Heart Foundation Programme Grant awarded to Prof Gerry McCann, NIHR Research Professor, Cardiovascular Imaging Group and Biomedical Research Centre Cardiovascular Lead. You will be supervised by Professor McCann and NIHR Academic Clinical Lecturer Dr Gaurav Gulsin.

The post holder will work in a newly established BHF Centre for Research Excellence with state-of-the-art NIHR clinical research facilities, including a dedicated 3T CMR research scanner and a recently built Translational Medicine Facility for clinical research to support translational studies in cardiovascular MRI.

The primary project is to track progression of subclinical cardiac dysfunction detected by cardiac MRI in a multi-ethnic cohort of asymptomatic adults with type 2 diabetes. You will invite participants from the PREDICT study, who have already undergone baseline comprehensive cardiovascular phenotyping, for repeat assessment. This will permit assessment of longitudinal changes in cardiac structure and function, in a group at high risk of progressing to heart failure with preserved ejection fraction.

This is a fixed term contract for 2.5 years, with a view to extending for a further 6 months up to 3 years. The commencing salary is subject to the funding available within the grant and may be less than the appointee's Specialty training salary as the post is undertaken as an Out of Programme opportunity in order to undertake a higher degree.

About You

We are looking for a highly motivated and experienced researcher to join our team. You will have a strong background in cardiovascular research and a proven track record of publishing high-quality research papers. You will also have excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to work effectively in a team environment.

As a Clinical Research Fellow, you will have the opportunity to work on a range of exciting projects, including the PREDICT study. You will be supervised by Professor McCann and Dr Gulsin, and will have access to state-of-the-art research facilities, including a dedicated 3T CMR research scanner and a recently built Translational Medicine Facility.

We offer a competitive salary and benefits package, including a comprehensive training program and opportunities for career development. If you are a motivated and experienced researcher looking for a new challenge, we would encourage you to apply for this exciting opportunity.
