About this position
2-year postdoc opportunity in participation, ethics, and data linkage for Parkinson’s research
This postdoctoral position is connected to the PC3 collaboration and the wider Parkinson’s research ecosystem at Queen Mary University of London (QMUL). The project focuses on how participation unfolds over time in research, with particular attention to PPIE (patient and public involvement and engagement), ethics, and the use of linked research and NHS data. The work sits at the intersection of Public Health, Medical Science, and research ethics, with strong relevance to data infrastructure, patient/public participation, and responsible health-data use.
The post mentions collaboration with Laura Smith and the PC3 team, and the broader initiative is led by Professor Alastair Noyce at QMUL. The linked Parkinson’s UK announcement describes PC3 as a major UK-led initiative that will combine data from more than 20,000 people to accelerate the search for new treatments for Parkinson’s. The resource will integrate cohort data, demographics, symptoms, genetics, blood samples, and NHS health records, creating a valuable platform for long-term research.
Research themes include: participation in research over time, ethical practice in data-intensive research, patient/public involvement, linked health records, and the governance and meaningful use of NHS data in Parkinson’s studies. The post is especially suitable for candidates interested in qualitative, ethical, participatory, or interdisciplinary approaches to health research.
Funding and duration: this is a 2-year postdoc position. The post appears to be a paid research appointment; no stipend amount or additional funding details are given.
Eligibility highlights: the post asks for someone interested in participation, PPIE, ethics, and data linkage. No specific degree, language test, or technical prerequisites are listed in the post.
Application window: the closing date is 30/04/2026.
How to apply: use the application link provided in the post and follow the instructions on the opportunity page. Review the PC3/Parkinson’s UK background material for project context before applying.
