Requisition Number:

R152664 Applied Research Scientist/Physician Scientist in Healthcare Quality Implementation (Open)

How You’ll Help Transform Healthcare:

Carilion Clinic (CC), and its academic partner Virginia Tech (VT), are recruiting a physician scientist researcher in quality and implementation science at the assistant, associate or full professor level at the Virginia Tech Carilion School of Medicine (VTCSOM) to be located on both the Carilion Clinic and the VTC Health Science and Technology campus in Roanoke, Virginia. The faculty member will be based in their appropriate clinical department at Carilion Clinic and will have an appointment in the Virginia Tech Carilion School of Medicine’s Department of Health Systems and Implementation Science.
At Carilion Clinic, we are growing our capabilities in research to directly enhance the quality of our inpatient and outpatient care and improve the implementation of evidence-based care for our patients. The applicant will conduct research in the inpatient and/or outpatient settings at Carilion Clinic working closely to coordinate projects with the medical leadership in quality and population health. Carilion Clinic (CC), and its academic partner Virginia Tech (VT), seek an experienced PhD or physician scientist researcher in quality and implementation science. We are seeking an experienced researcher, at the Associate or Full Professor level.  The faculty member will be based in their appropriate clinical department at Carilion Clinic and will have an appointment in the Virginia Tech Carilion School of Medicine’s Department of Health Systems and Implementation Science.
  • The specific focus of research is implementing evidence-based practices, evaluating the impact of evidence-based interventions on quality of care, improving the health of the populations we serve (specifically rural populations), and reducing low-value care. The successful candidate will have the opportunity to envision the strategic growth plan for Implementation Science research and operationalization within these organizations, including development of an applied research lab or Center. Candidates should use translational and/or clinical approaches, using tools and frameworks of implementation science, pragmatic trial design, epidemiology, and population health science. Specific areas of interest for growth could include cancer and cancer prevention, obesity and metabolic disease, and cardiovascular disease. However, the position is dedicated to implementation of high-quality care, therefore need not be exclusively focused on these areas.

What We Require:

Education: PhD, MD/PhD, DO/PhD, or an MD or DO degree with significant research experience.

Experience:  Significant research experience, or, if more junior, completion of a postdoctoral research experience, research fellowship or a combined clinical and research fellowship are preferred. A record of significant accomplishment of implementation research innovation and productivity as demonstrated through high quality impactful publications in leading scientific and/or medical journals as well as a record of extramural funding are strongly suggested. Physician candidates must be board-certified as they will contribute to clinical care and the training/mentoring of graduate and medical student, residents and fellows.

.

Other Minimum Qualifications:

Candidates considered for positions at the associate or full professor rank are expected to have substantial active extramural research funding, particularly from the NIH or other federal agencies, foundations and/or industry. This individual could be a research scientist or a physician scientist.
