Clinical Research Scientist I or II-Social and Environmental Epidemiology in Cancer Survivorship

Job Description

We are seeking a Social and Environmental Epidemiologist to join our interdisciplinary research team. The successful candidate will contribute to studies examining how multilevel social and environmental determinants, including socioeconomic vulnerability and exposure to physical and chemical environmental hazards, influence the health outcomes of childhood cancer survivors across the cancer continuum, from diagnosis through long-term survivorship. Key responsibilities include collaborating with senior faculty to design and conduct epidemiological studies, analyzing large and complex datasets using advanced statistical and computational methods, contributing to grant proposals and peer-reviewed publications, and presenting research findings at national and international conferences.

The Social and Environmental Epidemiologist will also collaborate with public health professionals, oncologists, primary care providers, cancer survivors and families, and policymakers to develop evidence-based strategies to reduce health disparities. Strong communication skills are essential for translating research findings into actionable recommendations. Ideal candidates will hold an MD or PhD (or equivalent degree) in epidemiology, public health, health services research, or a related field, with demonstrated expertise in social and/or environmental epidemiology, health disparities, and quantitative analysis.

Experience with grant writing and obtaining external funding is highly desirable.#J-18808-Ljbffr
