Job Purpose

This post will contribute to a new Cancer Research UK funded project run jointly between the University of Glasgow and NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde.

Working with Dr Helen Mulvana (University of Glasgow) and Ms Susan Moug (Consultant Surgeon, NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde) and co-Investigators at the University of Edinburgh and the University of Lund, Sweden, this is an exciting opportunity for an engineer / physicist with previous experience in ultrasound to work on a truly multidisciplinary challenge.

The successful candidate will also be expected to contribute to the formulation and submission of research publications and research proposals as well as to help manage and direct this complex and challenging project as opportunities allow.
