ABOUT THE ROLE

We are looking for a successful and dynamic Senior Programme Manager to lead on a National Institute of Health Research (NIHR) follow-on study. This study, entitled PREVENT (Prevention of Epilepsy by Reducing Neonatal Encephalopathy), involved 60,000 women from several hospitals in India and was funded by an NIHR RIGHT program grant (£3.4 million; 2019-2024). It is led by Professor Sudhin Thayyil in the Centre for Perinatal Neuroscience, where the research focuses on hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy, a birth related brain injury which impacts around three million babies every year, predominantly in low and middle-income countries.

WHAT YOU WOULD BE DOING

You will be involved in supporting data analysis, coordinating with study investigators, parents, the wider public, policymakers, and leading bodies, including the World Health Organisation, for the dissemination of the study results. This is the world’s largest study on babies with birth-related brain injury. You will also help develop the study protocol and obtain necessary regulatory approvals for a newly funded NIHR Global Health Group (£3 million; 2025-2029) called CONNECTIONS (Consortium for Neuroprotection Trials in South Asia), and the other trials within the Centre.
