Crynodeb
An exciting opportunity has arisen for a rehabilitation/exercise researcher at the University of Strathclyde. The post will support and evaluate the community roll out of a Technology Enriched Rehabilitation Gym for people recovering from stroke. The Sir Jules Thorn Centre for Rehabilitation Technology centre has developed a multi-technology, high intensity circuit-based group exercise programme that lasts eight weeks and tailors’ rehabilitation to individual needs. It has been tested with more than 100 chronic stroke survivors at the University and 60 sub-acute patients at an NHS stroke unit. We have now received funding to implement this exciting rehabilitation programme at four new centres across Scotland so that more people can receive the recommended levels of rehabilitation after stroke. The four locations (Dundee, Edinburgh, Wishaw and Blantyre) are in collaboration with partners in the NHS, Chest Heart and Stroke Scotland and Dundee Leisure and Culture. As an implementation study the main tasks for a researcher would be to support the local teams delivering the intervention, including training and resolving issues with the equipment, and to collect data that provided the evidence for future programmes, including changes in the function of participants and impact on their lives. To do this we would like an individual comfortable with a mixed methods approach, some training can be provided.
As a Research Assistant, under the general guidance of a research leader, you will develop research objectives and proposals, play a lead role in relation to a specific project/s or part of a broader project, conduct individual and/or collaborative research, contribute to the development of new research methods, identify sources of funding, and contribute to the securing of funds for research, including drafting grant proposals and planning for future proposals. You will write up research work for publication, individually or in collaboration with colleagues, and disseminate the results via peer reviewed journal publications and presentation at conferences. You will join external networks to share information and ideas, inform the development of research objectives and to identify potential sources of funding. You will collaborate with colleagues to ensure that research advances inform departmental teaching effort and you will collaborate with colleagues on the development of knowledge exchange activities by, for example, participating in initiatives which establish research links with industry and influence public policy and the professions. You will also supervise student projects, provide advice to students and contribute to teaching as required by, for example, running tutorials and supervising practical work. You will contribute in a developing capacity to Department/School, Faculty and/or University administrative and management functions and committees and engage in continuous professional development.
To be considered for the role, you will be educated to a minimum of BSc (Hons) in a related area (physiotherapy, occupational therapy, exercise and sport) and have experience in delivering exercise to special populations, for example people with neurological conditions like stroke. You will have sufficient breadth or depth of knowledge in rehabilitation/exercise and an ability to conduct individual research work, to disseminate results and to prepare research proposals. You will have an ability to plan and organise your own workload effectively and an ability to work within a team environment. You will have excellent interpersonal and communication skills, with the ability to listen, engage and persuade, and to present complex information in an accessible way to a range of audiences.
Whilst not essential for the role, applications are welcomed from candidates with experience using rehabilitation technology, completed/almost completed a PhD or desire to register for a higher degree and engage in research related activities.
