The Medical Practice Evaluation Center (MPEC) has an opportunity for an enthusiastic and energetic individual to join our research team investigating the clinical and economic value of alternative strategies of HIV and tuberculosis diagnosis, treatment, and prevention, as well as modeling of other diseases and care. The position is with an internationally-recognized, multidisciplinary team from Massachusetts General Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, Yale School of Public Health, and multiple international institutions including the University of Cape Town, South Africa. The research team includes decision scientists, physicians, epidemiologists, biostatisticians, and health economists. Together, the group studies the clinical impact and cost-effectiveness of various prevention and treatment options for HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis, tobacco use, and other health-related conditions, in collaboration with researchers in the US, as well as in a range of international settings, including Botswana, Brazil, Côte d’Ivoire, France, India, Mozambique, South Africa, Thailand, and Zimbabwe.
The candidate should be highly motivated with extensive experience in quantitative methods, independent mathematical model development, parameterization, and debugging. The position offers a stimulating and multidisciplinary environment and the opportunity to contribute to the development of the NIH-funded Cost-effectiveness of Preventing AIDS Complications (CEPAC) microsimulation model, and potentially other disease models. The primary responsibilities of this individual will be to assist with model refinement and extension including infection transmission dynamics, to conduct CEPAC model-based cost-effectiveness analyses including value-of-information analyses, to lead in abstract and manuscript preparation, and to assist with grant submissions. There are multiple possibilities for interaction with other researchers in Boston, as well as collaboration with many national and international research groups and institutions.
