How You'll Help Transform Healthcare:
Carilion Clinic (CC), and its academic partner Virginia Tech (VT), are recruiting a 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 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. MD/PhD, or DO/PhD degrees or an MD or DO degree with significant research experience; if early career, postdoctoral research experience, research fellowship or a combined clinical and research fellowship are preferred; a record of significant accomplishment of implementation research innovation and productivity as demonstrated through high quality impactful publications in leading scientific and/or medical journals; and a record of extramural funding. Candidates considered for positions at the associate or full professor rank are expected to have substantial active extramural research funding, particularly from the NIH or other federal agencies, foundations and/or industry. The position will be employed by Carilion Clinic and will include both research and clinical duties with a primary emphasis on research. The applicant will conduct research in both the inpatient and outpatient settings working closely to coordinate projects with the medical leadership in quality and population health at Carilion Clinic. The specific focus of research 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. We are particularly interested in a candidate that can utilize these methodologies 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. 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 include: i) cancer disease and prevention; ii) endocrine disease and related diseases. However, the position is dedicated to implementation of high-quality care, therefore need not be exclusively focused on these areas. Innovation in artificial intelligence and computational modeling used in the context of implementation science is necessary. Successful candidates will be expected to maintain clinical activity, a high-quality applied research program, build an extramurally funded research program and either maintain or develop high-profile national/global recognition as leaders in their respective fields of implementation science and medicine. Successful physician candidates are required to be board-certified in their medical specialty and will contribute to the training/mentoring of graduate and medical students as well as residents and fellows. 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. 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.
