    Position Summary


    The Department of Psychology at Rosalind Franklin University of Medicine and Science invites applications for a full-time Research Study Coordinator position in the Sexuality, Health, and Gender (SHAG) Lab, directed by Dr.

    Brian Feinstein.


    The overarching goals of the SHAG Lab are: 1) to advance research on the role of stigma-related stress in the development and maintenance of mental and behavioral health problems among sexual and gender minority (SGM) populations across the lifespan; and 2) to develop and test interventions to improve SGM health.


    The Research Study Coordinator will contribute to an NIMH-funded study examining the longitudinal and daily associations between sexual orientation-related rejection, rejection sensitivity, and mental health in a diverse cohort of sexual minority adolescents.

    They will oversee all day-to-day operations of the project, including but not limited to: monitoring the progress of research activities; developing and implementing quality control processes; ensuring that study protocols and regulatory requirements are followed; developing and maintaining record-keeping systems and procedures; preparing study materials and IRB submissions; purchasing and budget management; preparing reports and presentations for internal and external venues; overseeing the work of other project staff (e.g., research assistants); and troubleshooting technical and related data collection issues.

    The ideal candidate will demonstrate strong skills in organization, communication, problem-solving, and management/leadership.

    The position is best suited for a post-master's research scientist, a post-bacc with several years of project coordinator experience, or a post-doc with a matching skill set looking to expand their experience coordinating large and complex research studies.

    In the case of a post-doc, the position may be eligible for the title Postdoctoral Research Associate. If desired, there will be opportunities to contribute to conference presentations and peer-reviewed publications.

    Start date:
    Flexible; as soon as possible preferred

    Term: 2 years, pending successful performance in Year 1 (with the possibility of extending the position beyond 2 years)

    Location:
    On-site preferred; remote will be considered

    Salary:
    $56,000 - $62,000, commensurate with experience

    Who We Are


    Rosalind Franklin University of Medicine and Science (RFU) is a graduate health sciences university committed to serving the population through the interprofessional education of health and biomedical professionals and the discovery of knowledge dedicated to improving wellness.

    The university embodies the spirit of inquiry and excellence modeled by its namesake Dr. Rosalind Franklin, whose Photo 51 was crucial to solving the structure of DNA.

    RFU is nationally recognized for its research in areas including neuroscience, brain-related diseases, inherited disorders, proteomics, cancer cell biology and immunology, cardiac resuscitation, and gait and balance.


    As part of our efforts to enhance the depth and breadth of research at RFU and to facilitate the translation of our basic science research to the development of diagnostics, therapeutics, and identification of biomarkers in order to improve human health, a new Innovation and Research Park (IRP) was constructed, opening in January 2020.

    The novel design of the IRP enables academic researchers to reside in state-of-the-art laboratory space that is in close proximity to industry researchers on each floor of the 100,000 sq ft building.

    It also houses our Helix 51 Incubator, Chicago's newest bioscience incubator for startups. To learn more, see
