Job Summary
The Multicenter Perioperative Outcomes Group (MPOG) within the Department of Anesthesiology at Michigan Medicine is hiring a Scientific Research Facilitator (SRF). MPOG is a consortium of over 60 hospitals that seeks to improve patient care, through research, quality improvement and education, using electronic health record (EHR) and clinical registry data. Our multidisciplinary Michigan-based team includes anesthesiologists, nurses, data scientists, computer programmers, project managers, epidemiologists and statisticians. We work closely with colleagues at Anesthesiology departments across the country and internationally to develop policies, procedures, and the technical infrastructure required to conduct large-scale research, create quality improvement initiatives, educate caregivers, and guide healthcare administration. The SRF position is a service-based role that includes critically evaluating research proposals, assessing the progress of research projects, and identifying challenges to data access and data quality with the overarching goal of increasing the efficiency of study teams in obtaining and utilizing EHR data. The SRF will collaborate with research colleagues and work as part of the MPOG Research Team but will also need to work independently with autonomy in decision making.
