It is aimed at fully-qualified medical doctors who are, or are eligible to be, registered clinical practitioners with the UK General Medical Council (GMC). It provides a unique opportunity for clinical academics to gain early-career experience in an industry-sponsored translational medicine programme.
To apply to this course you must be medically-qualified and eligible to undertake clinical practice in the UK (having General Medical Council registration or proven eligibility for registration). You should have clinical experience at ST4+ level or equivalent, typically having obtained MRCP or equivalent, but not CCT or consultant status (see Entry requirements for further details).
