Research Fellow and Research Officer in Health Economics (Full-time posts): Bangor University
Location: Bangor, UK
Salary range: £29,853 - £36,715 p.a.
Application deadline: 6th September, 2010
The Centre for Economics and Policy in Health is a leading health economics research unit with a portfolio of research projects, including pharmaceutical economics and policy, economic evaluation alongside clinical trials, public health economics and methodological research in health economics. It leads on the economic assessment of new medicines for the All Wales Medicines Strategy Group (AWMSG).
Due to an expansion in the AWMSG work-programme to all new medicines not covered by NICE, we are seeking to appoint a research fellow and a research officer in health economics to assist in the production of assessment reports of industry submissions. Supported by academic health economists and the Welsh Medicines Partnership, this is an exciting opportunity for the post holders to further their careers in health technology assessment. Opportunities will also be available for collaboration in research projects.
