The MRC Biostatistics Unit is seeking a number of Group Leaders (at the 
level of Senior Research Associate) to develop independent scientific 
programmes to complement the Unit's established research portfolio. 
These positions are aimed at ambitious researchers who are ready to take 
the next step towards becoming a Principal Investigator. Successful 
applicants will be given the resources and support to establish a new 
group with the expectation of an accelerated personal and career 
development towards Group Leader (at the level of Principal Research 
Associate level) within 5-6 years.

The MRC Biostatistics Unit is one of Europe's leading biostatistics 
research institutions. Our focus is to deliver new analytical and 
computational strategies based on sound statistical principles for the 
challenging tasks facing biomedicine and public health.

We welcome applicants interested in developing an independent research 
programme within any of our broad research areas. Current research areas 
include: (i) design and analysis of randomised trials, (ii) evidence 
synthesis methods to inform health, (iii) methods for the analysis of 
complex longitudinal data and for stratified medicine, and (iv) 
modelling and inference in statistical genomics. A programme which 
includes a component focused on exploiting opportunities offered by new 
sources of data rapidly becoming available in biomedicine and public 
health to advance disease understanding and evaluate treatment would be 
of particular interest.
