Academic Clinical Lecturer Programme

Deaneries have also had the opportunity to bid for Academic Clinical Lecturer programmes.  These programmes are aimed at speciality specific trainees who have completed a higher degree to enable them to complete specialist clinical training whilst also facilitating development of a post doctoral research career.

The posts combine 50% research and 50% clinical training and will allow individuals to develop their own research group.  The hope is that they will also lead to an application for a senior fellowship. 

In Newcastle there are Academic Clinical Lecturer programmes in Ageing Specialities, Hepatology, Obstetrics & Gynaecology, Surgical Specialities, Dental Specialities, Public Health and Psychiatry.
