Non-clinical Career Development FellowshipCambridge BHF Centre of Research Excellence
The University of Cambridge has identified cardiovascular disease as a major research priority, and this has been endorsed by the recent award of a British Heart Foundation Research Excellence Award of £5 million (2024-2029).
The Cambridge BHF Centre of Research Excellence (BHF CRE) brings together a wide range of cardiovascular research groups across the University of Cambridge and affiliated institutions. More information about the Centre's aims and main research themes can be found on our website: .
We are now inviting applications for a non-clinical career development fellowship. This fellowship is available for outstanding postdoctoral researchers in basic biomedical science, applied health research and population/data science, and translational medicine, or outside traditional areas working at the interfaces of disciplines - particularly where adoption of techniques outside cardiovascular science or medicine can accelerate translational research.
The successful applicant will have a strong record of research and its communication in a relevant subject. The post holder will also need to be able to work independently as well as in active collaboration with multi-disciplinary partners.
The funds for the fellowship will be available for up to two years from the commencement of the post.
Informal enquiries about these posts can be directed to the Centre Manager, Dr Jane Sugars ().
Interviews will be held on Thursday 24th October.
Fixed-term: The funds for this post are available for 2 years in the first instance.
Once an offer of employment has been accepted, the successful candidate will be required to undergo a basic disclosure (criminal records check) check, a health assessment and a standard Disclosure and Barring Service check. This appointment also requires a Research Passport application.
The University actively supports equality, diversity and inclusion and encourages applications from all sections of society.
The University has a responsibility to ensure that all employees are eligible to live and work in the UK.
