Clinical Fellowships
RCR Fellow Fairer Training Outcomes - Clinical Oncology
For the past two years, our RCR Fellows for Fairer Training Outcomes, Dr Abioloa Fatimilehin and Dr Zsuzsanna Iyizoba-Ebozue have analysed a plethora of data on differential attainment and developed targeted interventions to address specific issues.
We are looking for their successors to pass on the baton of achievements.
Interested? Read more about the role and apply below.
The primary purpose of these posts is to:
- offer an engaging and worthwhile developmental project activity outside of training or clinical practice
- contribute to the work of the College
- produce an outcome of benefit to other members or Fellows and/or patients.
Most of these opportunities are not funded and will be voluntary (expenses will be paid where applicable); they will vary in duration and are relevant to clinical oncologists or clinical radiologists or both. RCR Clinical Fellows will work with a College Officer or other lead Fellow and one or more members of College staff who together will brief the RCR Clinical Fellow, provide guidance and offer feedback. The resulting work will be owned by the RCR but the RCR Clinical Fellow will be acknowledged and may quote from or use extracts from the outcome within conditions set by the RCR.
