The successful candidate will work on multiple clinical and genomic epidemiology studies. The position entails literature review, supervised data abstraction and curation, working with large cohort studies including biobank and laboratory data, population surveys, and other publicly available data.

The Research Assistant will work with Leland Hull, MD, MPH (DGIM, Harvard Medical School) to obtain, curate, and analyze data to understand population uptake of various genetic tests, with a focus on reproductive carrier screening.
