Northwell Health is seeking a Full-Time Advanced Lung Disease and Transplantation Clinical Research Fellow to join our Department of Cardiovascular and Thoracic Surgery and the Department of Medicine.

This research fellowship was created to support and promote academic and research activities to advance the scientific knowledge base in the field of advanced lung disease. Our researchers and departments are well-equipped to manage this fellowship. The Sandra Atlas Bass Heart Hospital at North Shore University Hospital is the first and only full-service destination for Cardiac and Lung Transplantation in Nassau, Suffolk, Queens, Brooklyn, Staten Island, and across Northwell locations.

The Department of Cardiovascular and Thoracic Surgery has a dedicated team of researchers, including a PhD in Biostatistics, a master’s prepared statistician, research investigators, residents in training, an associate research manager, and a data manager. The Department of Medicine's investigators are prolific, well-published, and have presented at top scientific meetings. The fellowship supports clinical research on topics such as the pathophysiology of transplanted lungs, clinical risk factors, management of advanced lung failure, drug and device therapies, patient experience, and outcomes after lung transplant.

The ideal candidate will be a graduate of an accredited Medical School with experience in clinical research. A completed residency is preferred. Candidates with completed fellowships and interests in Critical Care Pulmonology or Cardiothoracic Surgery are a plus.

Responsibilities include collaboration with the Medical Director of Advanced Lung Disease & Transplantation, Program Director, Thoracic Surgery Residencies, and faculty, focusing on database management and publications.
