This post is suitable for surgical trainees who have completed core surgical training or are in specialist training. They will have clinical responsibilities and take part in the on-call rotas (at registrar level) covering organ transplantation and retrieval. The successful applicant will be expected to carry out supervised research. The post is based at the Oxford Transplant Centre, Churchill Hospital.
The appointment will be on a whole-time basis, but applications are welcome from those who wish to job share.

Main duties of the job
Clinical fellows will take part in the middle-grade rota to support the on-call transplant service at the Oxford Transplant Centre, Churchill Hospital and the Oxford multi-organ retrieval service. The Research Fellow will also contribute elective clinical work at the Transplant Centre.
The Oxford Transplant Centre comprises a separate building including day-case beds, outpatient clinics, Tissue Typing laboratory and office accommodation; in-patients are situated nearby. The unit provides a regional renal transplant service for the six counties surrounding Oxford (population about 3 million), supra-regional pancreas, islet and intestinal transplant services and organ retrieval (as part of the National Organ Retrieval Service). Some 250 deceased and living donor transplants and more than 160 organ retrievals are performed per year, together over 400 vascular access and other procedures. The clinical activities of the Oxford Transplant Centre include the pancreatic islet transplant programme.
The transplant unit is closely associated with major research programmes in transplantation biology within the Oxford Transplant Centre, The NHSBT Transplantation Laboratory and the Nuffield Department of Surgical Sciences.
