Weill Cornell Medicine's Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging Program is hiring now for a part-time research assistant. This is an excellent opportunity for mid-year graduates or current alumnae seeking part-time work.
Responsibilities entail the coordination of active NIH and foundational research protocols, focused on cardiac imaging and outcomes research, as well as technical studies focused on the development of new imaging technologies. The research assistant/coordinator will work closely with a multidisciplinary team of physicians and biomedical engineers, and assume key responsibilities for daily aspects of patient enrollment and coordination, data archival/compilation and analysis, and institutional administrative and compliance issues (e.g. IRB, budgeting). Myriad opportunities would be available for learning about cardiology and imaging, including attendance at clinical conferences, shadowing opportunities, and co-authorship on both abstracts and manuscripts. The position entails a broad array of clinical exposures (ideal for expanding pre-medical knowledge base) and is a great opportunity for graduating seniors/post-graduates who are looking to take a gap year and/or are able to start part-time now!
Employment start date: HIRING NOW (part-time starting in January or earlier) or May/June full-time 2020 (slight flexibility in start if needed); 1-2 year positions available.
Individuals with scientific background and/or interest in a long-term medical research career are preferred, but not required. Minimum one-year commitment.
If interested, please send a CV and Cover Letter to Razia Sultana at ras4012@med.cornell.edu
