Research assistant sought for the Weill Cornell Medical College Cardiac Imaging program. 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 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).
Employment start date: June full-time 2021 (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.
