GENERAL SUMMARY/ OVERVIEW STATEMENT: Summarize the nature and level of work performed. Please note that this section should be written in a paragraph format and provide a broad description of the role and its purpose as well as the reporting structure.

The MGH Cardiovascular Imaging Research Center (CIRC) has a unique blend of researchers and interests with the goal of deriving the most significant impact on patient health through collaborative research. We strive to be at the forefront of cardiovascular imaging research and to provide a collaborative forum for the medical community at large and the patients, researchers, and clinicians with a specific interest in cardiovascular disease. We focus on contributing to bridging the gap between the development of new imaging markers, novel medical therapies, and proof of their efficacy and efficiency in clinical practice. Our goal is to obtain a deeper understanding of interactions between different organ systems and how they affect cardiovascular health.

CIRC faculty have led major NIH- and industry-funded funded clinical trials using coronary CT, including the PROMISE trial (NEJM 2015), the REPRIEVE trial (NEJM , and the GOLDILOX trial ). Emerging high impact research areas include artificial intelligence using chest and cardiac imaging.

We have a faculty of eight, about 20 postdoctoral fellows, and 10 other support staff and collaborate with institutions worldwide.

The MGH Cardiovascular Imaging Research Center is seeking a qualified individual to assist with and coordinate clinical research trials involving both the divisions of radiology and cardiology. This position has extensive opportunities for learning about biomarkers, imaging, risk stratification and outcome. The focus of this position is supporting clinical trials operations for CT imaging studies. Key activities include management of imaging data bases, data analysis and quality assurance using Python or similar tools, review of imaging data for completeness and support of imaging reads, project management support and assisting with maintaining regulatory binders for clinical trial operations.

The ideal candidate will possess strong data management and IT skills, is detail oriented and has some knowledge of Python.
