Research Data Analyst
The Myasthenia Research Group is based at the NDCN and led by PI and Associate
Professor Dr Maria Isabel Leite, consultant neurologist at Oxford University
Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (OUH). The group are investigating various
aspects of autoimmune myasthenia conditions, including disease epidemiology,
diagnosis, and management. Furthermore, they study the immunopathogenic
mechanisms of the disease, and its association with autoantibodies and thymic
malignancies.
The post-holder will gain an understanding of autoimmune myasthenia disorders
and their relevant demographic, clinical, laboratory, and radiological
aspects. This is a unique opportunity to support work producing data-driven
insights into the epidemiology and real-world impact of myasthenia gravis,
with the potential to inform care for people with myasthenia at national and
international levels.
This is a full-time post based within an academic and clinical research
setting. The post requires a high level of autonomy and the post-holder will
need to show excellent initiative, interpersonal and organisational skills to
support the Myasthenia Research Group research aims.
**Essential Selection Criteria **
• Hold a first degree (BSc or equivalent) in a relevant subject (e.g.
Neuroscience, Health Sciences, Statistics, or similar).
• Demonstrable knowledge of laboratory research and academic aspects of
myasthenia gravis, statistics relevant to epidemiology, biological sciences
and producing data visualisations.
• Awareness of Data Protection, Research and Clinical Governance guidelines,
and ethical considerations in line with relevant data governance frameworks.
• Proven ability to work independently while contributing to wider research
activities as part of a team.
• Advanced proficiency in Excel for managing and cleaning datasets,
familiarity with MS Office packages (Word, PowerPoint) and willingness and
ability to learn to use new software.
• Excellent collaboration (within the team and with external partners),
excellent interpersonal skills and an ability to recognise and work with own
and others’ strengths.
• Strong communication skills, including written and verbal presentation of
data findings.
• Demonstrable ability to organise and prioritise work efficiently whilst
delivering results to the required standard and to an agreed schedule
### Desirable selection criteria
• MSc or equivalent postgraduate degree in Neuroscience, Healthcare Data
Science, or related discipline.
• Experience of laboratory research relating to and academic aspects of
myasthenia gravis
• Experience working in clinical audit, working with REDCap and/or electronic
patient records (EPR).
• Evidence of contribution to previous research publications or presentations
in this field.
