About us: The Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology & Neuroscience (IoPPN) at King’s College London is a world-leading centre for research and education in mental health and neuroscience. An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Clinical Research Fellow to contribute to a cross-disciplinary programme within the Department of Psychosis Studies at the IoPPN in collaboration with the South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust.
