The Athena Breast Health Network is a large scale, UC system-wide program initiated by UCSF with the intent to drive innovation in breast cancer prevention, screening, and treatment. The program currently has five participating UC medical/cancer centers as well as Sanford Health System (Dakota's), and anticipates growing the network into community practices in the future. Athena Breast Health Network enables personalized care informed by science, and fuels continuous improvement in treatment options and outcomes. Athena UCSF is one of the sites of the Athena Network. The Athena Network has received funding to conduct a large-scale pragmatic trial across the Athena sites and at other regional medical centers. The five-year Wisdom Study will recruit 100,000 women, and the goal of the study is to test two approaches to breast cancer screening (annual screening vs. personalized breast screening) to determine which approach is most effective, safe, and preferred by women. This highly visible and impactful study requires a dedicated and motived coordinator to support the site-wide efforts to implement and execute the patient-centered outreach, consent, and surveys across all sites.
The UCSF Clinical Research Coordinator (CRC) is based at the UCSF Athena site offices.
Under the supervision of the PMO Business Operations Manager and Site Principal Investigator (PI), the incumbent will perform duties related to the support and coordination of clinical studies, help prepare and modify protocols for the study; help design flow sheets, data forms and source documents; gather and interpret medical, surgical and laboratory data regarding study participants; may apply understanding of inclusion/exclusion eligibility criteria for protocols; help recruit, enroll, register, schedule and retain study subjects; record protocol specific treatments and assure collection and shipment of samples; assist research personnel to keep patients on study schedules; complete study forms to submit to sponsors and/or appropriate agencies; collect, enter and clean data into study databases, maintaining data quality; assist with data analysis; assist with preparation of reports and tables; attend team meetings; and perform other duties as assigned.
In addition, the CRC will help with day to day operations of the Athena standard of care process within the UCSF mammography center. The CRC will work with the clinic front desk staff, radiology and technician coordinators, and others in the UCSF mammography screening clinic and play a role in planning how to integrate our external workflows into the electronic health records system.
A primary focus of the position will be providing direct support to study participants via phone and email. Under the direction of the PMO Business Operations Manager and the Site PI, the CRC will answer participant study-related questions, send clinical questions to Breast Health Specialists, and provide overall support and coordination to the central and site study staff members. Additional responsibilities will include support for UCSF IRB submissions for all Athena protocols, including the Wisdom Study, and maintaining IRB approval records for the duration of the trial.
The CRC will perform independently or with general direction execute, manage, and coordinate research protocols, as directed by the PMO Business Operations Manager and/or Principal Investigator (PI); may coordinate the data collection and operations of several concurrent clinical research studies under the guidelines of research protocols, UCSF and regulating agency policies.

The final salary and offer components are subject to additional approvals based on UC policy.
