They will complement the work of the existing Radiology Lead through contribution to teaching, assessment and quality assurance.

There are also opportunities for collaborative research in medical education and within the wider research portfolio of the Medical School.

We are looking for a consultant with a strong commitment to teaching and student learning, experience in scholarly educational development and delivery, and enthusiasm for cross-disciplinary working with colleagues across the University and NHS. The joint appointment will be subject to agreement with the substantive employer.
