About this position
Vanderbilt University Medical Center invites applications for a postdoctoral fellow to join the interdisciplinary Center for Research and Innovation in Systems Science (CRISS), within the Institute of Population and Public Health in the Department of Anesthesiology in Nashville, Tennessee.
Working with Megan Salwei, PhD, the fellow will pursue mentored research in health information technology design and implementation to support patient and clinician decision-making. The primary project is an NCI-funded study focused on improving breast cancer treatment decision-making and patient journeys.
The fellow may also contribute to federally funded projects on health IT design and implementation, including the development of artificial intelligence tools in healthcare, and collaborate with the Department of Biomedical Informatics. The position offers an interdisciplinary research environment connecting population and public health, anesthesiology, biomedical informatics, clinical research, and implementation science.
Research activities will include implementing and evaluating a health IT intervention for breast cancer treatment decision-making, coordinating study activities, conducting qualitative and quantitative analyses, producing manuscripts and conference presentations, and supporting grant writing. Training will cover mixed methods, human-centered design of health IT, implementation science, clinical trials, grant writing and management, and other skills aligned with the fellow’s individual development plan.
The fellowship is designed to provide the mentoring and protected development time needed to advance an independent research program.
