We are seeking to recruit a medical statistician with a good programming background and an interest in methodological issues to work within a Cancer Research UK funded research programme called "Benefits and Risks of Cancer Treatments.

The main focus of the programme is to obtain quantitative information regarding long term outcomes in people diagnosed with cancer.

The research uses large datasets from routine data sources to better understand the epidemiology and optimal treatment of a number of different cancers, including Hodgkin lymphoma, non-Hodgkin lymphoma, pre-invasive and invasive breast cancer, and advanced cancers.


To be considered you will hold a degree at Masters level or equivalent, with substantial numerical content, eg mathematics, statistics, computer science, or a physical science.

Experience and practical success in statistical analysis of medical data and programming skills in a statistical language, including Stata or R/S-plus, SAS are essential for this post.
