NIHR Clinical Research Facility (CRF) Senior clinical research fellow in field of vaccines, infectious diseases or immunology. Two Fellowships for adult or paediatric fellows are open to those training in or wishing to develop a clinical or research interest in vaccines, infectious diseases or immunology, or associated field (such as infections of respiratory disease). This will be a Senior role depending on experience and level of current training.

At least 50% of the fellow’s time will be spent on research service provision providing medical support and cover to adult and paediatric studies occurring in the CRF and at the Wessex Research Hubs in Southampton, Portsmouth, Bournemouth and Weymouth. The remaining time will be flexible, dependant on the individuals needs but could be used to provide the time and support for an application to be made for a formal externally funded research training fellowship and registration for study towards a higher degree (usually PhD or MD). The post will be appointed for 1 year in the first instance, depending on the candidate’s needs. Where appropriate, funding may be extended by fixed time periods where academic progress is considered satisfactory.
