There will be also a requirement to help support the research team of nurses to recruit patients into commercial clinical trials and registries that are ongoing. The post holder will be expected to start up novel clinical research projects. This will involve submitting projects to the local Ethics Committee, recruiting patients, hands-on clinical research, data entry and writing up results.
