We have received funding from UK Mental Health Mission to further support research activity in University of Manchester and local NHS Early Intervention in Psychosis Services. The posts will support a new cohort study, the Early Intervention Mission, that is being funded by the Mental Health Mission. This study will streamline routine outcome data collection from all people within the OEIS, pioneer the use of mobile phone apps at scale for patient-reported symptoms, and align with blood sample collection for future genomic analysis and personalized medicine.
These posts will work with Professor Richard Drake and the Early Intervention Mission leadership team to develop this work. We will seek honorary NHS contracts so that the post-holders can be embedded in NHS Early Intervention Services and play an important role in bridging between the University and the clinical teams to fulfill the study research objectives in accordance with the funding. There will be plenty of opportunities to gain experience in clinical research across multiple settings. This role is ideal for someone looking to gain experience in clinical research with a view to considering a future clinical academic career. Although the main focus is on delivering the research project objectives, there will be opportunities for some clinical work to aid embedding in the team and support the integration between clinical and research work. There are two posts available.
What you will get in return:
* Fantastic market-leading Pension scheme
* Excellent employee health and wellbeing services including an Employee Assistance Programme
* Exceptional starting annual leave entitlement, plus bank holidays
* Additional paid closure over the Christmas period
* Local and national discounts at a range of major retailers
