**About Western**:
**About Us**:
The Faculty of Health Sciences is a large, diverse, and comprehensive unit, comprised of six Schools (Nursing, Kinesiology, Health Studies, Physical Therapy, Occupational Therapy and Communication Sciences and Disorders), a large Interdisciplinary Graduate Program in Health and Rehabilitation Sciences and four Research Centres. The Faculty has more than 3,200 undergraduate students and more than 800 graduate students (200 PhD students).
The Arthur Labatt Family School of Nursing educates nurses who are reflective practitioners and provides recognized leadership in nursing research, theory, practice, and policy advancements. Our research programs seek to develop knowledge capable of enhancing health equity by transforming practice, services, education and policies that affect health and well-being across the lifespan. Research programs reflect 5 overlapping areas of strength: Women’s Health; Violence, Gender and Health; Digital Health; Mental Health; and Global and Indigenous Health.
As the Women’s Health Research Chair in Rural Health, Dr. Marilyn Ford-Gilboe leads a large, externally funded research program in the area of violence against women, women’s health, inequity and rurality. Her research includes a focus on developing and testing the effectiveness of online and F2F interventions in improving the health, safety and well-being of women who have experienced intimate partner violence (IPV) as part of a long-standing collaboration with colleagues at the University of British Columbia and University of New Brunswick. With the completion of a national randomized controlled trial of iHEAL, a woman-led health promotion intervention for women with histories of IPV, we are mid-way through a 4-year study examining implementation and sustainability of iHEAL within health care, in collaboration with partner organizations in public health and primary care in ON, BC and NB
**Responsibilities**:
The Research Associate will directly support Dr. Ford-Gilboe’s research program, with primary responsibility for the iHEAL implementation study, and involvement in related projects. With Western as the lead organization, the Research Associate will play a critical role in supporting coordination and communication with a larger team of collaborators, staff and trainees at Western and other universities (particularly UBC and UNB) and with partners in health care organizations, while also supporting site-specific research activities (for Ontario). Specific areas of responsibility include: Planning, Design and Conduct of the Research; Data Management and Analysis; Project Management, Coordination and Team Communication; Knowledge Mobilization; and Research Administration and Reporting.
