Geisinger Looking for Cardiovascular Epidemiologist at Danville, Pennsylvania Full Time

The Department of Population Health Sciences (DPHS) within the Geisinger Research Institute is growing and seeks to recruit a cardiovascular epidemiologist faculty member. The DPHS is embedded in the Geisinger health system, a large integrated health system in Pennsylvania, and the Geisinger Commonwealth School of Medicine. The DPHS faculty includes epidemiologists, biostatisticians, behavior scientists, health economists, and clinician researchers. 

Faculty have access to vast data resources, including longitudinal electronic medical record (EMR) data spanning more than 25 years, claims, genomic, and environmental data. The Department collaborates closely with Geisinger’s Heart and Vascular Institute (GHVI), a diverse and busy clinical venture that directly cares for patients in North and Central PA. DPHS and GHVI aim to work closely to solve many of the most complex population health challenges that our health system faces.

Candidates must possess an earned doctorate (e.g., PhD, MD). The position is open rank; however, priority is given to associate and full professor levels. Experience in use and analysis of EMR data is preferred. The successful candidate will be expected to develop an externally funded research program, either through independent or collaborative projects, and provide service to the health system and their profession. Appointment at higher levels must show a record of extramural grant funding as a Principal or Co-Investigator and publication of peer-reviewed research.

Applicants are to submit a cover letter that addresses the qualifications for the position and a CV.  For additional information and to submit materials, please email Search Committee, Department of Population Health Sciences ([email protected]) or apply directly at https://jobs.geisinger.org/job/danville/associate-assistant-professor-cardiovascular-epidemiology/12064/26761811280.
