Description

Project Coordinator

_GENERAL SUMMARY/


OVERVIEW STATEMENT:
_
The Medical Practice Evaluation Center (MPEC) within the Mongan Institute is seeking an intellectually curious and highly organized individual with international research experience to serve as a Research Project Coordinator for a novel project seeking to define global access to dermatology, characterize dermatology deserts within high
- and low-resource settings, and create a roadmap to improve access to skin health.


Currently, there is limited understanding of how dermatologists are distributed across the globe and who is making diagnoses related to skin health.

In collaboration with the International League of Dermatological Societies and the World Health Organization, this project aims to leverage survey techniques to define the density and distribution of dermatologists and characterize which healthcare professionals are on the frontline of making initial skin diagnoses.

Through active oversight of regulatory processes, the Project Coordinator will ensure continuous compliance with all applicable regulations. Additionally, the Project Coordinator will engage with data collection tools such as REDCap to accomplish the project aims.
  • The Medical Practice Evaluation Center (MPEC) informs health policy and transforms the care of underserved populations worldwide through clinically focused costeffectiveness, epidemiologic, and implementation research. MPEC is driven by a team of passionate and dedicated personnel from diverse backgrounds who exemplify professionalism, respect, and integrity in their work.
  • MPEC is unified by several core values:

  • Humility and mutual respect in our collaborations with external partners
-
Equity - as a common objective both as an organization and in our work

  • Our
    collective success and a culture of sharing
-
Mentorship - to develop the next generation of investigators and leaders
