ABOUT THE ROLE

This Clinical Research Fellow post supports an exciting, multidisciplinary NIHR-funded translational research project to develop a tool to automatically interpret electroencephalography (EEG) and provide information that healthcare professionals can use at the point of care. The clinical motivation is the detection and measurement of delirium and identification of patients with non-convulsive status epilepticus.
You will work in the group of academic neurologist and computer scientist Dr Gregory Scott, with a team of collaborators having expertise in translational neuroscience, clinical neurology, signal processing, machine learning, neurophysiology, and human-centred design.
You will be central to the execution and data collection of a major prospective research study in hospitalised patients.
As a Clinical Research Fellow, you will be medically qualified with a full GMC registration. You will be comfortable working closely with hospitalised patients and health professionals in a research context.
This is an exciting opportunity to work on the research and development of a potentially transformative way to acquire and interpret EEG and to improve our understanding of altered states of consciousness.

WHAT YOU WOULD BE DOING

You will conduct the planning, organisation, data collection, and analysis of a significant research study in hospitalised patients, including administration and regulatory aspects. You will be expected to spend much time in hospitals carrying out research assessments on patients, using a combination of EEG (including simple off-the-shelf devices), clinical/behavioural scales, a tablet-based cognitive testing platform, and taking samples for blood biomarker testing. You will also actively participate more broadly in the research programme of the group.
