Applicants are being sought for a half-time or full-time research coordinator position in the WELL Center (an expansion of the Laboratory for Innovations in Health-Related Behavior Change) at Drexel University in Philadelphia, PA, under the direction of Dr. Evan Forman. Drs. Forman, Butryn, and Juarascio are conducting multiple NIH-funded clinical trials in the areas of using innovative approaches to improve diet, health, and weight, including new forms of behavioral treatment; computerized "brain training" neurocognitive trainings; smartphone app-based machine learning interventions and algorithm-based optimized interventions.

Coordinator responsibilities will center around coordination of one or more existing trials. These responsibilities include: helping to develop study protocols; scheduling and conducting participants’ clinical research assessments; tracking participant progress; managing data and coordinating data collection; maintaining contact and approvals with NIH and IRB; and supervising part-time research assistants. Advanced skills in data management and data tracking/analysis software (e.g., REDCap, SPSS, Microsoft Access, Excel) are a plus.

Opportunities also will be available, as desired, for additional data analysis and preparation of poster presentations and/or manuscripts related to the projects.

Candidates should have a bachelor’s degree and coursework and/or work experience related to the conduct of clinical research. Candidates will be asked to commit to staying in the position until the summer of 2019. This position is excellent preparation for individuals who wish to pursue graduate study in clinical psychology or a related area. Start date is flexible, but July 2017 is preferable.

To apply, please complete the questionnaire here, upload your Vita, and submit using the >> button. Applications are due April 1, 2017 and will be reviewed as received. If you have problems or questions, contact research coordinator Cara Dochat ([email protected]).
