University Lecturer in the Department of Paediatrics

University Lecturer in paediatric intensive care in the Department of Paediatrics. The Appointments Committee hope soon to be in a position to appoint to this office. The successful candidate will be expected to develop a research programme related to the neurosciences. There is close collaborative research with cognate groups in the University. The successful candidate, who will be recommended for an honorary consultant contract with the Addenbrooke's NHS Trust, will be required to undertake teaching, research, and clinical work. Appointments to University Lectureships in the Clinical School are normally for five years, with the possibility of reappointment to the retiring age.

The pensionable scale of stipends for a University Lecturer is £19,371 a year, rising by eleven annual increments to £29,875 a year. There is no grade of Senior Lecturer. The successful candidate will be eligible to receive an additional payment for clinical responsibility related to the amount of clinical work undertaken. If, as expected, the Lecturer undertakes the equivalent of six or more NHS sessions a week of clinical work the payment will be such as to bring his or her total pensionable emoluments into line with a place on the NHS salary scale for consultants (£43,165-£55,705).

Those interested in the office are encouraged to discuss further particulars with the Head of Department, Professor Ieuan Hughes, tel. 01223 336885, and Dr Rob Ross Russell, Director of Paediatric Intensive Care, tel. 01223 216878. Further information may be obtained from the Secretary of the Appointments Committee, Clinical School, Addenbrooke's Hospital, Hills Road, Cambridge, CB2 2SP, to whom applications (fourteen copies), together with a curriculum vitae and the names of three referees, should be sent so as to reach her not later than 5 November 1997.
