Ultimately, the intention is for the candidate become a leading clinical academic within Scotland focused on cancer prevention. This research will be published in high impact journals and presented at international conferences. The candidate will have opportunities to work with the UK National Screening Committee and Scotland’s Screening Oversight Group in implementing changes to improve bowel cancer screening within Scotland based on the findings from this work.
