Applications are invited from suitably qualified candidates for a full-time Specific Purpose position as a Senior Research Fellow (Evidence Synthesis Methodology Lead) in Evidence Synthesis based in the Centre for Health Research Methodology at the University of Galway, Ireland.  

The position is available 1st Nov 2025 to 30th Nov 2030 (61 months) 

Centre for Health Research Methodology 

Located within the College of Medicine, Nursing and Health Sciences (CMNHS) at University of Galway, the Centre for Health Research Methodology (CHRM) is renowned for its dynamism, innovation and contributions to the world of health research. With a keen focus on improving the design, conduct, reporting, and application of evidence synthesis and randomised trial findings, CHRM has positioned itself as a global leader in its domain.

In addition to championing improved research methodologies, the Centre actively engages in spearheading its own randomised trials and evidence syntheses. This hands-on approach ensures that the Centre stays at the cutting edge of advancements in healthcare research, continually pushing the boundaries of what's known and understood.

Housing three established/recognised research organisations, CHRM brings together the best of health research in Ireland:

1. HRB-Trials Methodology Research Network (HRB-TMRN): A collaborative initiative, the HRB-TMRN aims to improve the quality and impact of randomised trials. Through its network, it fosters enhanced methodologies, training, and collaboration in trials, laying the foundation for more robust and reliable clinical studies. Delve into its expansive network and contributions at HRB-TMRN.
2. Evidence Synthesis Ireland (ESI): With a commitment to enhancing the quality and capacity of evidence synthesis on the island of Ireland, ESI provides invaluable resources, training, and expertise. Their focus lies in ensuring that health and social care decisions, both within and outside Ireland, are informed by high-quality, timely research evidence.

3. Cochrane Ireland: A pivotal part of the global Cochrane network, Cochrane Ireland dedicates itself to improving healthcare decision-making through high-quality, relevant, and up-to-date synthesised research evidence. Their endeavours ensure that healthcare policies and practices are grounded in reliable scientific evidence. Learn more about their mission and impact at Cochrane Ireland.

In addition to hosting HRB-TMRN, ESI, and Cochrane Ireland, the Centre strongly focuses on a central pillar of an Informed Public. We believe an informed public is key to healthcare advancement and aim to demystify healthcare research through public engagement initiatives. Similarly, we strive to bridge the gap between research and practice, ensuring access to clear and accurate health information for well-informed health choices. In an era of rapid misinformation spread, fostering critical thinking is imperative. We equip individuals with skills to critically evaluate health information through various resources and programmes. Example projects in these domains include The People's Trial.
