Be the First to ApplyThis post is part of the mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) predict portfolio which focuses on identifying accurate, reproducible biomarkers in mTBI that will predict the most common and disabling consequences of mTBI: primarily persistent post-traumatic headache, as well as cognitive dysfunction, depression, PTSD, dizziness and return to work. This will be achieved through a harmonised program of detailed clinical phenotyping of acute mTBI patients coupled with state-of-the-art multimodal biomarker evaluation (brain imaging, fluid biomarkers, steroid hormones, visual, sleep, cognitive, vestibular, cerebral physiology, and EEG).

The project is focused on studying the mechanisms driving the early chronic kidney disease associated cardiomyopathy and investigating the novel treatment options. The successful candidate will be responsible for planning, managing, executing and analysing experiments, and ensuring that key deliverables are met. The successful candidate will be expected to work closely with other members of the Translational Research Cluster on Heart Failure and Arrhythmias and the Birmingham Cardiorenal Group. The post-holder will also be encouraged and supported to apply for fellowships in the cardiovascular field and to develop their independent scientific career.
The selected candidate will join a vibrant and internationally recognised research team aimed to understand the disease mechanisms of inherited cardiac conditions. They will undertake research into disease mechanisms of filamin C-associated cardiomyopathy and its translational implications on a Heart Research UK funded project. The successful applicant will work together with colleagues and employ induced pluripotent stem cell derived cardiomyocytes as a cellular model of disease.
The post-holder will contribute to the development, optimisation, and application of minerals processing techniques to extract and recycle critical materials from end-of-life components and materials. They will work as part of a multidisciplinary research team with the researchers from the University of Birmingham (UoB) and with other industrial and academic partners
This Research Fellow post is to support two projects on unexpected infant and child deaths. The first is a case-control study of SIDS, using data on SIDS cases from the National Child Mortality Database (NCMD) with control infants recruited from Birmingham families. The second is a study led by the University of Southampton looking to improve bereavement support for families after sudden infant and child death; University of Birmingham will be interviewing a range of professionals about their support for bereaved families.
The post holder will hold a Research Fellow position, working on health economics and value proposition projects within the recently awarded NIHR University Hospitals Birmingham (UHB) HealthTech Research Centre (NIHR UHB HRC). The NIHR UHB HRC will deliver a national centre of excellence to support the translation of new healthcare technologies safely, effectively and efficiently into routine care for NHS patients and follow-on social care.
