Carilion Clinic (CC), and its academic partner Virginia Tech (VT), are recruiting a physician scientist researcher in quality and implementation science 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 faculty member will be based in their appropriate clinical department at Carilion Clinic and 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 is implementing evidence-based practices, evaluating the impact of evidence-based interventions on quality of care, improving the health of the populations we serve (specifically rural populations), and reducing low-value care. The successful candidate will have the opportunity to envision the strategic growth plan for Implementation Science research and operationalization within these organizations, including development of an applied research Lab or Center. Candidates should use translational and/or clinical approaches, using tools and frameworks of implementation science, pragmatic trial design, epidemiology, and population health science. 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.
