Position Summary:
Are you passionate about conducting research and improving health care quality and outcomes? The Wisconsin Surgical Outcomes Research Program (WiSOR) is seeking a researcher to join our rapidly growing program. WiSOR is an interdisciplinary, multi-investigator research program within the Department of Surgery that supports a wide variety of outcomes-focused research, including health care disparities, comparative effectiveness, patterns of care, and performance and safety in surgical care. The immediate program needs for this position involve project management of a large multisite study that examines patient engagement in breast cancer surgery decision making. Other ongoing work focuses on breast cancer survivorship and disparities in breast reconstruction.
The selected candidate will assist with a variety of research areas, including project management, coordination of research teams, and execution of research. You will be expected to have experience in both qualitative and quantitative research methods and be able to manage projects involving interdisciplinary teams that include clinicians, biostatisticians, and qualitative researchers. The successful candidate will be a self-motivated, highly organized, detail-oriented problem solver who is both able to work independently and contribute to team science.
The School of Medicine and Public Health has a deep and profound commitment to diversity both as an end in itself but, also as a valuable means for eliminating health disparities. As such, we strongly encourage applications from candidates who foster and promote the values of diversity and inclusion.
