The Glasgow Movement Disorder Service is leading the UK multicentre study referred to as PRoBaND, the Parkinson s Repository of Biosamples and Network Datasets, which involves around 30 centres around the United Kingdom and is a natural history study of early and young onset Parkinson s disease patients and their relatives, with a genetic focus and biosampling of blood for longer term storage. In collaboration with centres in Newcastle, Cardiff, London and Bristol, Glasgow developed the successful bid for grant funding of 1.6 million pounds over 5 years as the initial phase of this project. The project is in the set-up phase having already received ethics approval and now entering the contract exchange stage with the national launch meeting scheduled for September 2011. You will be appointed as a Clinical Research Fellow in Movement Disorders and will participate in largely clinical based research. There is a commitment to participation in the movement disorder clinic involving patients with Parkinson s disease, dystonia and similar conditions, and in particular the clinical assessment and scoring of patients for inclusion in the PRoBaND study. This will be undertaken in the Institute of Neurological Sciences as well as in the joint clinics in Lanarkshire. As a primarily research-based post, there will be a particular focus within the research for work which the successful candidate will develop into submissions for national and international meetings, publication in peer reviewed literature, and there will be an opportunity to develop the work into submission for a higher medical degree.

1. GENERAL INFORMATION Glasgow A Fantastic Place to Live and Work Glasgow has a wealth of attractions including some of the UK s finest Victorian architecture, internationally acclaimed museums, galleries and cultural venues all thriving in a unique cosmopolitan atmosphere. The renaissance of Glasgow over the last decade is an urban success story to which many major UK and European cities aspire. Glasgow is now one of Europe s top cultural capitals with a complete all year calendar of festivals and events. Native Glaswegians and visitors enjoy widely acclaimed bars and first class restaurants, nestling within the best commercial shopping district Glasgow is the gateway to Scotland's most spectacular scenery, with Loch Lomond and the Trossachs only 40 minutes away. Glasgow is at the core of national rail and road networks and Glasgow International Airport is linked by motorway to the Southern General Campus, only 10 minutes away. The Hospital Modernisation Programme Health services in Glasgow is in the process of a major change, brought about by the recently approved Hospital Modernisation Programme. This ten-year 700 million strategy will transform acute services across the city including the replacement of out-dated Victorian buildings and the creation of one- stop/rapid diagnosis and treatment models for the vast majority of patients. Major changes include a New Acute South Glasgow Hospital with co-location of Maternity / Childrens / Adult Hospital services with the Institute of Neurological Sciences within the Southern General Campus. Changes outside of the local campus include ambulatory Care/Diagnostic and Treatment Centres at the Stobhill and Victoria sites and a new Cancer Centre, PET CT Imaging Centre and Acute Receiving/OP Unit at Gartnavel Hospital. The Institute of Neurological Sciences The Institute of Neurological Sciences () is located on the Southern General Hospital campus, in the southwest of Glasgow. The is a tertiary and quaternary referral centre providing both regional and national clinical services. Regional services comprise clinical neurosciences (neurology, neurosurgery, neurophysiology, neuropathology and neuroanaesthesia) to the 2.7 million people in Glasgow and the West of Scotland. There are currently 9 consultant neurosurgeons (90 beds) and 25 consultant neurologists (36 beds). Associated specialties such as neuro-oncology, neuro-otology, neuro-ophthalmology also attend. Oral and maxillofacial surgery (12 consultants) is also based here, providing trauma and elective surgery and specialist provision for head and neck cancer and cervicofacial vascular malformations. 2. THE WORK OF THE DEPARTMENT The Department of Neurology provides in-patient and out-patient care for patients with neurological disorders with sub-specialisation in various areas including movement disorders. There is an emphasis on collaborative working in the multidisciplinary team

involving Parkinson specialist nurses, neurology specialist nurses, ward-based staff, and a clinical pharmacist. There are joint Neurology and Medicine for the Elderly clinics for movement disorders encompassing Parkinson s disease, dystonia and other conditions. At the Institute of Neurological Sciences there are neurology clinics and a joint Neurology/Medicine for the Elderly clinic at three sites in Lanarkshire (Coathill Hospital, Hairmyres Hospital, and Wishaw Hospital). There are joint Neurology and Medicine for the Elderly clinics. The movement disorder team has research interests in diagnostic and treatment aspects of Parkinson s disease. We were the lead site for the pivotal clinical studies leading to the licensing of FP-CIT SPECT (DaTSCAN) in the differential diagnosis of parkinsonism and tremor disorders. We have undertaken a novel research relating to therapy adherence in Parkinson s disease patients. There is a strong emphasis on computerisation and standardisation of record keeping.
