This individual will be imbedded in our active and collegial research center comprised of UCLA faculty in epidemiology, health services research, and implementation science in addition to junior team members, undergraduate students and graduate students from the UCLA schools of medicine and public health. Additional opportunities in this position will include authoring papers, training and experience in grant preparation, and participation in other research projects as needed in our Center. The individual will also have full access to several mentors and field experts in the schools of public health and medicine. Ideal candidates for this role will have a strong interest in cancer prevention, a Master's or PhD in health services research or a related field, and prior experience with coordinating research projects in health settings.
