Position Summary
This is an opportunity to join an established clinical research team in the Division of Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine and work on an implementation science study in partnership with community health centers. Specifically, the hired candidate will work with James Krings, MD MSc and colleagues at the Brown School and medical school on clinical research studies in asthma. This team has an upcoming study that aims to improve the implementation of guideline-recommended care in asthma.
This position would involve communication with real-world health care providers, informed consent, regulatory documentation, and helping coordinate and potentially leading focus groups (if of interest). There are opportunities for academic publication and travel to conferences, which is not necessary, but could be available if the candidate wishes.
All of the above skills could be learned on the job. The asthma research team at Wash U has extensive experience in conducting clinical research and we are looking for a motivated individual to join our collaborative team. The potential job would include close collaboration and working side-by-side with four other experienced clinical research coordinators and could also include working on other PCORI-funded, NIH-funded, and industry-sponsored clinical trials that we have ongoing.
