Following recent grant successes, including significant funding to expand our York Evidence Synthesis Group, CRD is looking for a Senior Research Fellow in Evidence Synthesis.
CRD is an academic research department that specialises in and is at the forefront of evidence synthesis. Our systematic reviews and other evidence synthesis projects span a broad range of health and public health areas to provide best evidence to inform policy and practice decisions, and are underpinned by a programme of methodological development and commitment to knowledge exchange.
As a Senior Research Fellow, you will lead evidence synthesis and health technology assessment projects within our existing research programs, which are funded by the National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR). You will also have the opportunity to develop your own research ideas and projects, contributing to the growth and leadership of the department.
Candidates should have an established track record in the field of evidence synthesis and be enthusiastic about evidence synthesis, evidence informed policy and practice and advancing health research. We welcome applications from all suitably qualified candidates and particularly encourage applications from people who identify as being from the Black African and Caribbean Heritage community, Asian, or other ethnic backgrounds that are underrepresented in the University of York.
This is a full-time position, but we are open to part-time arrangements (at least 60% of full-time, or 3 days per week).
Interview Date: To Be Confirmed
