The successful candidate will take a proactive and major role in the department’s commercial and non-commercial research, including recruitment of patients and responsibility for their clinical care throughout trials. The department conducts research involving all aspects of heart disease.

We hope this post will be attractive to candidates with a genuine passion for research who would be interested in following one of the following routes:

1.       Candidates looking to develop their research skills. This may be, but is not limited to, candidates with cardiology experience but waiting to obtain their NTN.

2.       Candidates looking to develop their research skills, also with an interest in learning how to perform, interpret and report stress echocardiography and myocardial perfusion images to a high standard. This role will support any candidate wanting to work towards BSE accreditation in stress echocardiography, however, candidates interested in stress echocardiography/myocardial perfusion imaging must be competent in transthoracic echocardiography (TTE). BSE accreditation in TTE is not a requirement and candidates working towards TTE accreditation will also be supported in this role. Candidates interested in pursuing this route will be asked for perform a basic echo at interview.

3.       Candidates looking to undertake their own original research project, up to the level of MD, under the supervision of Professor Roxy Senior. This may be, but is not limited to, candidates already with their NTN, looking to take a break to undertake a research project.

 

The Echocardiography Department at Northwick Park has been granted Centre of Excellence status in the UK for Transthoracic, Transesophageal and Stress Echocardiography, following a formal visit by the British Society of Echocardiography.

The department is also one of the few hospitals in the UK to host National Stress Echocardiography workshops throughout the year.

Our facilities include a new angiography suite, along with state-of-the-art echocardiography equipment, a dedicated 26 bed cardiac ward, 8 bed coronary care unit, heart failure unit and 8 bed day care unit for elective outpatient procedures.
