Occupational Summary
The Research to Eliminate Global Cancer Disparities (REGAL) team aims to understand and address the underlying causes of cancer health disparities in the US and globally. We evaluate the relative and joint contributions of social determinants of health (e.g. healthcare access, socio-economic status, systemic racism) and molecular mechanisms that drive cancer mortality. Leveraging robust data from primary and secondary sources, high-quality biospecimen, and molecular assay data, we utilize a cell-to-society framework to identify key factors that can be modified to eliminate racial disparities in cancer. The REGAL team includes junior faculty, post-docs, biostatisticians, project coordinators, and grad students.
The REGAL team seeks a Senior Research Program Leader with extensive training and experience in cancer epidemiology to support the development, implementation, and oversight of our robust portfolio of research focused on cancer disparities. The RPL, Sr will lead and contribute to 1) proposal writing and grant submission, 2) analysis, interpretation, and dissemination of results, 3) program administration and management of key milestones, and 4) overall program leadership, including mentorship of trainees. The RPL, Sr will develop and coordinate wider program activities, including communications and serving as liaison with collaborators and partners (e.g. laboratory managers, vendors, and sub-contractors) on behalf of the PI. They will lead communications with other research groups or programs, serving as the scientific liaison for the research program.
