ABOUT THE ROLE

We are looking for a dedicated Clinical Research Fellow to work on projects in memory and cognition including Alzheimer’s Disease and other neurodegenerative diseases. We are looking for highly motivated junior doctors who would like to gain experience in research to pursue their career in neurology, psychiatry, and general medicine with a research focus.

WHAT YOU WOULD BE DOING

You will be supervised by Professor Paul Edison (https://profiles.imperial.ac.uk/paul.edison), who leads the Imperial Memory Research Centre ((https://imperialcollegememoryresearchcentre.com) within the Department of Brain Sciences. The Centre evaluates neuroinflammation and other neurodegenerative process such as synaptic function, mitochondrial function, amyloid and tau and structural functional changes in neurodegeneration using PET, MRI and CSF markers, and involves both basic and translational imaging.
You will take an active role in the research studies in Professor Edison’s laboratory, helping to recruit and cognitively assess patients and coordinate patient care. You will also get the opportunity to plan and write future proposals for funding, as well as your own fellowship application.
