Junior Clinical Fellow in Renal Medicine

You should have tissue culture experience, knowledge of the UK Human Tissue Act, good communication skills, and flexibility for unsocial hours, with on-call islet isolation every two weeks.

You will prepare human cells, isolate islets from donor pancreases, maintain lab standards, ensure record keeping and sterility, and assist in islet isolation with periodic on-call duties.

Science

The King’s Cell Isolation Unit was established in 2001 to prepare human cells from donor organs under Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) conditions for clinical use. It is one of only 3 such laboratories in the UK that are approved by the Human Tissue Authority to provide islets for clinical use. Islets of Langerhans are clusters of cells located in pancreas, termed pancreatic endocrine cells. These regulate human blood glucose levels in health. Patients with type 1 diabetes have lost these cells due to an auto-immune process, and have to use insulin injections. Our lab is on-call 1 week in two to take donor pancreas and isolate the islets from them for clinical use. If the cells are not suitable for clinical transplantation, but the donor has provided research ethics, these cells can be used for research. The process of isolation of islets is complex, taking between 5 – 8 hours working in a highly regulated environment according to detailed standard operating procedures. There is a lot of work required in maintaining the islet isolation laboratory to the precise standards required. Particular attention is given to precise record keeping, maintaining sterility and environmental monitoring. The successful candidate will be required to demonstrate experience in tissue culture techniques, knowledge of current UK Human Tissue Act and good communication skills. The ability to work flexibly such as unsocial hours (anytime during the day, night or weekend) is essential as the availability of human pancreas organs for human islets transplantation is unpredictable. The post holder is expected to assist in islet isolation based on one week on-call for every two weeks. Hours worked overtime will be taken as time-in-lieu in non-oncall week King’s College Hospital NHS Foundation Trust is one of the UK’s largest and busiest teaching Trusts with a turnover of c£1 billion, 1.5 million patient contacts a year and more than 15,000 staff based across South East London.
