This is an exciting opportunity to join a vibrant community of dementia researchers.
This is co-funded post between the NIHR Applied Research Collaboration East of England (ARC EoE) and the University of East Anglia (UEA). The NIHR ARC East of England is a collaboration between the host trust, Cambridgeshire and Peterborough NHS Foundation Trust, and the Universities of Cambridge, East Anglia, Hertfordshire and Essex in partnership with other health and social care organisations, industry, and charities across the region. The aim of the ARC EoE is to support applied health and care research, implementation and capacity building at a local, regional, national and international level. The post will align with the ARC EoE Ageing and Multimorbidity Theme.
This is an excellent opportunity to develop the next generation of applied dementia researchers. The successful candidate will join a regional cohort of postdocs in applied dementia research from our ARC East of England, based at our partner universities. This regional cohort, in turn, will be part of a national cohort. Read more about the funding award here
