Two Research Assistant posts will join the international collaborative research study Maximising the benefits of intervention research to support language and communication in children. These posts are offered on a full-time basis and are fixed term for 36 months.

The posts provide an exciting opportunity to participate in an important programme of work, which ultimately aims to improve the experiences and outcomes of children with communication needs and address issues of equity and representation in research; while gaining excellent research experience and opportunities to collaborate with national and international researchers across seven countries.
