Clinical Research Fellow in Paediatric Infectious Disease Diagnostics

Do you want to transform the way we diagnose lower respiratory tract infections?

As a Clinical Research Fellow in Paediatric Infectious Disease Diagnostics, you will be at the centre of a multi‑disciplinary team developing a host blood gene expression test to diagnose the cause of lower respiratory tract infection in children at the point‑of‑care.
