Summary: An exciting opportunity to become one of tomorrow's Cancer
Research Leaders. We wish to attract high quality candidates to take up
senior non-clinical research fellowships (working in linked areas of
applied clinical science for example; health economics, mathematical
modelling, medical statistics) to create a strong clinical and
translational research base that can deliver tangible improvements in
cancer outcomes for patients in South Yorkshire and beyond.
Appointees should focus on clinical and translational aspects of cancer
research within the following priority themes that align closely with
the Yorkshire Cancer Research (YCR) research strategy:
* Early diagnosis and access to treatment
* Improving clinical outcomes in common malignancies
* Improved health and wellbeing with and beyond cancer
* Lung cancer
These new appointments will link with the University of Sheffield (UoS)
Research Centres, thereby providing a connected research infrastructure
with the dual aims of reducing cancer mortality and improving the
experience of living with or after a cancer diagnosis. Each appointee
will receive a generous start-up package to enable rapid initiation of
internationally competitive research. You can view details of how to
