Carilion Clinic (CC), and its academic partner Virginia Tech (VT), are recruiting a applied scientist (PhD) or physician scientist researcher in computer science and analytics at the assistant, associate or full professor level at the Virginia Tech Carilion School of Medicine (VTCSOM) to be located on both the Carilion Clinic and the VTC Health Science and Technology campus in Roanoke, Virginia. The position will be employed by Carilion Clinic, based in the appropriate clinical department, and will include a primary emphasis on research. The faculty member will have an appointment in the Virginia Tech Carilion School of Medicine's Department of Health Systems and Implementation Science. At Carilion Clinic, we are growing our capabilities in research to directly enhance the quality of our inpatient and outpatient care and improve the implementation of evidence-based care for our patients. The applicant will conduct research in the inpatient and/or outpatient settings at Carilion Clinic working closely to coordinate projects with the medical leadership in quality and population health. The specific focus of research for this position is on using advanced computational methodologies, including the development and application of fundamental and advanced artificial intelligence (AI), including generative AI, machine learning, deep learning, natural language processing, or computer vision to advance our understanding of data related to improving quality of care, improving patient outcomes, and building capacity for integrating scientific evidence, data, and best practices into the care delivery process. Innovation in these areas used in the context of implementation science is a requirement. The successful candidate will have the opportunity to envision the strategic growth plan for data science related research and operationalization to improve clinical care. Specific areas of interest for growth could include cancer and cancer prevention, obesity and metabolic disease, and cardiovascular disease. However, the position is dedicated to implementation of high-quality care, therefore need not be exclusively focused on these areas. A highly competitive salary, new state-of-the-art space, and a start-up package will be provided and for early career faculty, career mentorship and support will be provided. The application process includes submitting full curriculum vitae, detailed statement of research accomplishments and plans, teaching/mentoring philosophy, clinical training and service, and a statement outlining commitment to diversity and inclusion. Please include the names and contact information of at least three references and have them directly upload their letters of support, which should be relevant to the academic rank of interest. Successful candidates will be expected to maintain a high-quality applied research program, build an extramurally funded research program, maintain their clinical activity and teaching if appropriate, and either maintain or develop high-profile national/global recognition as leaders in their respective fields of implementation science and medicine.
