Clinical Researcher

The Clinical Researcher will serve as the Principal Investigator to coordinate the "CaixaResearch Health HR24-00927 project”, titled " Una nueva estrategia terapéutica más efectiva para tratar las malformaciones arteriovenosas cerebrales." This project aims to investigate a more effective and less invasive therapeutic target to improve treatment and outcomes for patients with brain arteriovenous malformations (AVMs). The Clinical Researcher will collaborate closely with neurologists, interventional neuroradiologists, veterinarians, pharmacologists, and biologists working on the project to ensure adherence to timelines and achievement of project goals. Key objectives include demonstrating effective embolisation of target lesions using newly developed formulations, within the embolised area, using an in vivo animal model of brain AVM (i.e., pig retia mirabilia). This position requires a blend of clinical, preclinical, and basic scientific knowledge, along with executive competence, to achieve the project objectives within the specified timeframe and agreements. **Education and qualifications**: **Required**: - Medical Doctor - Residency in Radiology **Desired**: - _ - _PhD in Neurosciences_ _ - _Training in project management_ _ - _Training in diagnostic neuroradiology_ _ - _Fluency in Spanish and English and Catalan_ _ - _Knowledge of the CaixaResearch Health 2024 call_ ***: **Experience and knowledge**: **Required**: - At least 1 year of experience working in an interventional neuroradiology department At least 5 years of experience working in a clinical hospital **Desired**: - Experience in managing interventional neuroradiology research projects - Experience working in a multidisciplinary environment **Main responsibilities and duties**: Project Management for CaixaResearch Health 2024 - Conceptualise, lead, and manage an in vivo animal study to demonstrate the effective embolization of target lesions using newly developed formulations.
