Registrar Doctor In Sarcoma Research

Chelsea, South West London, United Kingdom

Job Description


We are offering a position for a Clinical Doctor in the Sarcoma unit that would be suitable for a Medical Oncology Trainee who wishes to gain experience in management of soft tissue sarcoma. The research doctor has particular responsibility for patients in the Sarcoma unit participating in clinical trials. The role includes attending the two weekly multidisciplinary team meetings and relevant out-patient clinics to highlight potential participants to be recruited to trials; consenting patients, assessing and recording acute and late toxicities, reporting adverse events and performing response assessment. General duties will include assisting with other clinical studies, general out-patient duties and support the Specialist Registrar on the Unit as well as working closely with all members of the research team.
Main duties of the job
We believe that this post provides oncologists with a good training in the care of patients with a wide variety of soft tissue sarcomas and would represent a sound basis for someone who wishes to specialise in the management of these diseases. Candidates learn about many aspects of clinical trials in cancer including regulatory affairs, adverse event reporting, response assessment and, on occasion, protocol writing. There is ample scope for contributing to writing papers and our doctors have a good track record of publication. There is protected time to allow for academic activities in the timetable.
