Academic Clinical Fellows (ACF) - Dental Core Training

We are seeking highly motivated, enthusiastic individuals wishing to excel in both clinical and academic training and who have the ambition to be the next generation of leading academic clinicians. Applications are now invited for Academic Clinical Fellowship (ACF) posts in Dentistry (2 year programme).
Queen’s University Belfast in partnership with the Northern Ireland Medical and Dental Training Agency (Northern Ireland Postgraduate Deanery) and the Belfast Health and Social Care Trust provide Clinical Academic Training opportunities in research and education. These posts offer candidates a comprehensive experience in clinical academic dentistry alongside internationally recognised clinicians and researchers.
Applications for ACF posts are invited from existing FDs, DCT1’s or DCT2’s in Dentistry. The ACF post is normally for 2 years. During this period it is expected that the ACF will participate in clinical training with an integrated period of 25% of whole time equivalent academic research training in the dental core specialty to which they are appointed. It’s expected that the potential ACF will rotate in at least two Dental specialties.
Trainees should review the Job Description for the specific criteria. Core clinical competencies will be gained as necessary through access to the essential elements of the Dental Core training curriculum. Clinical training offers a wide range of opportunities in programmes that have a strong track record in training and academic activities.
