Expert Appointment to the Nuffield Council on Bioethics Horizon Scanning Advisory Group
The Nuffield Council on Bioethics is looking to appoint two external experts to our Horizon Scanning Advisory Group (HSAG).
The HSAG provides governance and guidance to our HS and foresight programme, helping to ensure it is of strategic benefit to the NCOB, and assists in meeting our goal to better anticipate emerging trends in biomedicine and health. The group meets on average once a quarter, and is comprised of at least four members of the NCOB and up to two external experts. Each group member serves a three-year term.
We are looking for experts with Futures experience (e.g. having worked in HS, foresight or strategic intelligence and / or Futures thinking). We are specifically interested in people with experience generating quant-based HS insights, and who have experience utilising HS signals and insights, as well as broader foresight and futures methods, to produce actionable programmes of work. Applicants do not have to be directly involved in the field of bioethics, but they should be able to demonstrate an interest and appreciation of the ethical issues. For more information, please see the role description.
To apply, please email your CV and a statement of interest to futures@nuffieldbioethics.org by 5pm on Tuesday 24th June. Shortlisted candidates will be invited to an online interview.
