Our culture empowers people to achieve this aim and to collectively, and individually, make a real difference.  

The role

Applications are invited for a Research Fellow position to work part-time on a Children’s Cancer and Leukaemia Group (CCLG) funded project to map current funding in children's cancer research against the Children's Cancer Priority Setting Partnership priorities. The successful post holder will be based in the School of Health Sciences, working with Susie Aldiss and Professor Faith Gibson.

Please note that the post is a fixed-term post (up to six months, 0.5 FTE) with flexible working.

In 2019, Children’s Cancer and Leukaemia Group (CCLG) and The Little Princess Trust partnered with the James Lind Alliance on the Children’s Cancer Priority Setting Partnership (PSP) (final report available from: https://www.cclg.org.uk/Childrens-Cancer-PSP). The aim of this PSP was to identify the research questions that need to be answered about childhood cancer, according to children, survivors, families/carers and professionals. Our focus in this current project is on the Top 23 priorities from the Children’s Cancer PSP (https://www.jla.nihr.ac.uk/priority-setting-partnerships/childrens-cancer/top-10-priorities.htm). In this project, we will undertake an information gathering exercise to establish which of the 23 priorities are currently priorities for funding and/or being funded. This will involve liaising with funders of childhood cancer research in the UK to collect their funding strategies and information on projects funded in the past five years. This will help funders to see where the gaps in funding are, avoid duplication and enable possible collaborations to ensure that all the priorities receive attention as these are the areas of research that children, survivors, families/carers and professionals have identified as important.

The successful candidate will be required to coordinate and undertake activities including liaising with research funders, leading on data collection and data management, analysis of data involving matching funding strategies and funded studies to the Top 23 priorities, dissemination of findings including report writing, preparing a journal publication and feedback to funders.
