The Queen Square Brain Bank (QSBB), based in the Department of Clinical and Movement Neurosciences in the UCL Queen Square Institute of Neurology, houses one of the largest collections of brains with neurodegenerative diseases in the world. This unique tissue resource was established through generous donation by patients and with the support of their families.
The Division of Neuropathology provides diagnostic services to the National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery (NHNN), part of University College London Hospitals NHS foundation trust, and a research infrastructure to the Institute of Neurology. The Division is one of the largest academic Neuropathology departments in the UK and has a substantial, high quality academic output.
The QSBB is seeking a dynamic Neuropathologist to join the neuropathology research and diagnostic service at the QSBB and the RLW BRAIN Programme. This is a ten programmed activity (PA) post with UCL as the lead employer: 5 PA academic duties in the Department of Clinical and Movement Neurosciences and 5 PA clinical duties at the Division of Neuropathology at NHNN.
As an Honorary Consultant Neuropathologist, you are expected to have a substantial commitment to the diagnostic work at the Division of Neuropathology; this includes an appropriate contribution to the diagnostic neuropathological work, administration, training, and teaching carried out in the Division of Neuropathology. You will also be on the on-call neuropathology rota of the Division of Neuropathology, the frequency of which will be determined according to the requirements of the hospital.
