It's a 50-50 split of research and clinical time. There will be some teaching but probably not a lot, the focus is research (and bringing in grants and trials for £).
Is it your own project you’ll be doing research for or do you jump into an existing project?
My projects, which I have been building at pilot phase and are growing external grants now. The advantage of this position is that I can recruit people to work for me on the projects.

I’ve heard you can use them all year round. Almost evergreen you may say.

One assumes you have to use your Government Name, though.

I'm not sure "This is our Professor of Cardiology, Dave The Explosive Newt" is gonna go down well with someone who's got a weak ticker.

@Explosive Newt

I'd missed the post where you said you were professor of cardiology

An area close to (forgive the pun) my heart

I've had issues with atrial fibrillation since my early 30s (now 55)

I've had numerous cardio versions and now 4x ablations (the last being a 4 hour procedure inside and outside of the heart

A suprisingly high number of people on the forum are intermittently consulting me about their own tickers ;-)

I'm sorry to hear about your AF though. It's sticky and likes to come back.
