Clinical Research Fellow

About us

The UCL Centre for Radiopharmaceutical Chemistry (CRC) is a multidisciplinary research centre dedicated to the development and clinical translation of novel biomedical imaging agents. The centre combines cutting-edge chemistry with clinical applications, supporting observational studies and clinical trials to advance precision medicine. The joint UCLH Endocrinology and Endocrine Surgery Departments provide integrated, multidisciplinary care for patients with complex endocrine disorders in thyroid, parathyroid and adrenal pathology. We specialise in adrenal conditions, especially Primary Aldosteronism, and serve as a specialist centre for diagnosing and managing phaeochromocytoma and paraganglioma, providing integrated biochemical testing, advanced imaging, and surgical planning.

About the role

The successful candidate will join a dynamic clinical trial team working in collaboration with the UCL CRC and the joint UCLH Endocrinology and Endocrine Surgery Departments, both of which are dedicated to the delivery of IDEAL2. IDEAL2 is a multicentre Phase 2 clinical study evaluating the imaging performance of a novel PET tracer (AldoView) radiopharmaceutical designed to improve diagnostic accuracy in patients with primary aldosteronism. The main role is a key part of the research team, working in close coordination with the clinical trials unit and Participant Identification Centres (PIC sites). The successful candidate will support multicentre trial activities and contribute meaningfully to a high-impact translational research programme. The position offers a unique opportunity to contribute to cutting-edge endocrine research and help define new clinical pathways in adrenal diagnostics. This post is available on full-time and part-time basis and is eligible for sponsorship.

About you

We are looking for a motivated, detail-oriented clinician with demonstrable expertise in endocrinology—particularly primary aldosteronism and adrenal disorders.

The successful candidate will support the delivery of a Phase 2 clinical trial, contributing to study visits, safety monitoring, adverse event reporting, and documentation. Excellent communication skills to enable effective collaboration across multidisciplinary teams are required. The successful candidate will be confident in managing the operational demands of multicentre studies, including recruitment, assessments, data collection, and coordination with sponsors and regulators. GMC registration (or active progression toward it) is required.
