Working with internationally renowned experts from the University of Leeds, Bradford Institute for Health Research, University of Bradford, University of Liverpool and University College London, the post holder will take a leading role in overseeing delivery of the qualitative work packages of the research.

Funded by the National Institute for Health Research Health and Social Care Delivery Research Programme, the research is closely aligned with current NHS policy in this area and will aim to directly inform national policy and practice relating to medicines optimisation.
