About us

The Department of Clinical and Movement Neurosciences is a world-leading group that brings together expertise across the clinical and basic science spectrum of the physiology and pathology of human movement and movement disorders. The Department incorporates groups from the Queen Square and Royal Free campuses of the Institute and includes the Reta Lila Weston Institute and the Movement Disorders Centre.

The Department is in a unique position of pursuing research in basic neuroscience that is of direct translational benefit to neurological and vestibular disorders. Current research programmes involve clinical trials, behavioural interventions, neurophysiology, neuroimaging, and implementation science approaches aimed at improving patient outcomes and healthcare delivery.

About the role

We are seeking a Research Assistant with a good knowledge of project managing large multi-Centre research funded projects, and ideally experience in Parkinsonism or Parkinson’s Plus conditions, to join the Department of Clinical and Movement Neuroscience under the supervision of Professor Huw Morris.

The project will involve coordinating the collaboration across multiple sites and overseeing the management of samples, sample transfer, and data generation from study participants with Parkinsonism and Parkinson’s Plus conditions, as part of a collaborative team based at the UCL Queen Square Institute of Neurology.

You will have the opportunity to work in close partnership with scientists at UCL and at collaborating sites around the world. The project also offers the opportunity to assist in other projects in the Group and develop research skills.

The post is available immediately and is funded by research grants awarded to Professor Morris for 12 months in the first instance.

If you need reasonable adjustments or a more accessible format to apply for this job online, or have any queries regarding the application process, please contact the Institute of Neurology HR Team ([email protected]).
