The Research Support Specialist (RSS) will join a multidisciplinary team working on two federally funded studies. One is a clinical trial, the goal of which is to conduct an innovative, rigorous experimental evaluation of remote vs. in-person methods on trial efficiency (accrual) and quality (retention, treatment adherence, bio-specimen completion rates). The other is a lab study that aims to learn more about withdrawal from vaping.

The RSS will operate and make decisions within defined protocols, relying on the experience and direction of research scientists and senior staff for carrying out more complex analytical tasks. Some initiative is required in recognizing situations for which normal standard operating procedures and methods are not appropriate and in bringing these situations to the attention of the research scientists and senior staff for decision.

Typical duties include:
  • Screening potential participants for eligibility
  • Assisting with development of standard operating procedures
  • Preparing for and running participant visits, including: collecting bio specimens, collecting survey data, collecting data on smoking and other behaviors over a specified time period, running cognitive and other computer assessments, reviewing medication adherence, providing smoking cessation support
  • Preparing and sending study materials to participants
  • Entering and maintaining records in REDCap
  • Coding behavioral observations
  • Attending lab meetings and multi-site meetings
  • General clerical office duties

A high level of discretion, judgment, collaboration, initiative, and attention to details are required to accomplish position goals.
