    About the role

    In this varied research role, you will be working within the Leicester Biomedical Research Centre, Departments of Cardiovascular Sciences at the University of Leicester and Cardiology at Glenfield Hospital undertaking clinical cardiac electrophysiology research.

    You will mainly focus on two streams of work; these will be to undertake research studying and refining techniques to improve identification of atrial regions responsible for Atrial Fibrillation (AF) maintenance and to co-ordinate a new clinical study in risk stratification in sudden cardiac death.


    The Cardiology group pursues a broad range of both basic and clinical research in the areas of coronary heart disease, hypertension, cardiac imaging and arrhythmias


    Principle themes include:

    Molecular genetics of coronary heart disease and hypertension; the role of biological ageing in coronary heart disease; development of myocardial perfusion imaging and measurement in acute myocardial infarction, chronic ischaemia and failure; characterisation of the factors involved in the initiation of cardiac arrhythmias; clinical trials in coronary disease and arrhythmias.

    The NIHR Leicester BRC is a partnership between the University of Leicester, University Hospitals of Leicester NHS Trust, Loughborough University and the University Hospitals of Northamptonshire NHS Group.

    Personalised cancer prevention and treatment, Environment – looking at how the environment impacts on long term health conditions - and Using data to better understand multiple long term health conditions and factors specific to the health of ethnic minority populations.

    Our overall purpose is to translate scientific breakthroughs in these areas into diagnostic tests, preventions and life-saving treatments for our patients.

    We do this by creating a collaborative workspace that allows scientists and clinicians to share their findings and deliver research that is relevant to both patients and the professionals who treat them.
