Job Summary
This clinical research coordinator position will involve assisting with a NIDA
-funded UG3/UH3 trial of ketamine-assisted psychotherapy for patients with opioid use disorder on buprenorphine. The study compares an 8-week Mindfulness-Oriented Recovery Enhancement ( MORE ) + 2 ketamine sessions to an 8-week supportive therapy intervention + 2 ketamine sessions. In addition to clinical outcomes and experiential outcomes, we are tracking with this trial, we will be examining dyadic EEG synchrony between study participants and the study therapist to better understand how therapeutic alliance, connection, and engagement predict therapeutic outcomes in psychedelic-assisted therapies.
This role will involve coordination of day-to-day clinical trial activities in accordance with Good Clinical Practices (GCPs), study protocols, and applicable regulations, implementation processes, and organization of efforts within the study team to achieve objectives, and coordination of research procedures, study visits, and follow-up care. This role will also involve maintaining tools and documentation to track study outcomes and providing updates to regulatory bodies and the study team, maintaining source documents, assessing and reporting adverse events (AEs), recruiting, screening, and obtaining consent from study participants, as well as interacting directly with study participants and their families / interpersonal supports.
This role will work alongside another full-time clinical research coordinator and a team of study therapists, co-investigators, and the PI, Benjamin Lewis, MD.
Candidates should be highly skilled and proficient in clinical research coordination and be able to conduct complex, important work under minimal supervision with wide latitude for independent judgment. Preference will be given for prior experience working with individuals with substance use disorders or vulnerable populations.
