Applicants are being sought for two research coordinator positions in the Department of Psychology at Drexel University in Philadelphia, PA, under the direction of Meghan Butryn, Ph.D., and Evan Forman, Ph.D. Drs. Butryn and Forman are conducting multiple NIH-funded clinical trials in the areas of eating disorder prevention, weight loss maintenance, and use of acceptance-based behavioral approaches to obesity. The coordinators will have responsibilities that include scheduling and conducting participants’ research assessments; managing data and coordinating data collection; maintaining contact and approvals with NIH and IRB; and supervising part-time research assistants.

Opportunities also will be available, as desired, for the research coordinators to analyze data and prepare poster presentations or manuscripts related to the projects. Coordinators also have the opportunity to be exposed to and involved in other research projects that apply contextual psychology, mindfulness, and acceptance-based interventions to areas such as physical activity promotion and regulation of eating behavior. Candidates should have a bachelor’s degree and have coursework and/or work experience related to the conduct of clinical research. Ideal candidates will commit to a minimum of 2 years in this position. This position is excellent preparation for individuals who wish to pursue graduate study in clinical psychology or a related area.

Interested candidates should 1) send a resume or CV to Stephanie Kerrigan (sgk36@drexel.edu<mailto:sgk36@drexel.edu>), specifying “Research Coordinator Application” in the subject line of your email, and 2) complete an application here<http://drexel.qualtrics.com/SE/?SID=SV_agzbsgxqwRx48iE>.
