Toronto, Ontario, Canada Ocean State Job Lot Full time
The Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH) is seeking one full-time, 12 months contract Research Coordinator. The Research Coordinator will work collaboratively as part of a team of researchers of the Institute for Mental Health Policy Research (IMHPR), a key driver in building the knowledge base for policy decisions, development of mental health interventions, and health system improvement.

The Research Coordinator will report to the Principal Investigators to support a laboratory study to determine the ability of cannabis consumers to titrate the THC dose of high-potency concentrates. To facilitate this project, the Research Coordinator will be responsible for all project-related activities, including recruitment, data collection, analyses, and results write-up. This role requires a well-organized, highly energetic and motivated individual who will work closely with internal and external stakeholders as well as people with lived and living experience with drug use.

Given the project needs, the candidate will need to be able to conduct in-person interviews at the Ursula Franklin and College Street sites. The project includes the following primary activities:

- Study Coordination: Oversee the daily operations of the laboratory study, ensuring adherence to protocols and timelines. Coordinate participant recruitment, screening, and scheduling.
- Data Collection: Manage, execute, and coordinate the collection of subjective measures (e.g., questionnaires, interviews), pharmacokinetic data (e.g., blood sampling, drug concentration monitoring), cognitive assessments (e.g., cognitive batteries), and physiological measures (e.g., heart rate).
- Protocol Compliance: Ensure that all procedures comply with study protocols and regulatory guidelines. Conduct regular reviews to maintain high standards of data accuracy and integrity.
- Participant Interaction: Provide support and guidance to study participants, addressing any questions or concerns they may have. Ensure a positive participant experience.
- Data Management: Oversee data entry, storage, and preliminary analysis. Collaborate with research staff to interpret data and troubleshoot any issues.
- Documentation: Maintain comprehensive records of study procedures, participant interactions, and data collection. Prepare reports and documentation for regulatory and review purposes. Complete project progress reports and perform other administrative and non-administrative duties as required.
- Writing: Conduct literature reviews and summarize evidence into various formats (scientific papers, reports, briefs, proposals, and presentations for diverse audience groups) and draft results for publication to peer-reviewed journals and grant applications.

Team Collaboration: Work closely with Principal Investigators, research staff, and other stakeholders to ensure the study's success. Participate in team meetings and contribute to study design and protocol development.

The successful candidate must possess a Masters level degree in a health-related field, with at least two (2) years of relevant experience. Knowledge related to cannabis and the conduct of clinical trials is considered an asset, as well as experience interacting with individuals in academic, research, and community health service settings, including people with lived and living experience with drug use. The successful candidate will have demonstrated research skills, particularly as it relates to qualitative research including interviewing and analysis. The successful candidate will also have strong writing skills, as demonstrated through authoring academic publications and/or reports. Candidate must possess strong organizational and interpersonal skills.

Key requirements include:

- Prior experience in a research coordinator or similar role, with a strong understanding of research methodologies and data collection techniques (e.g., cognitive batteries).
- Experience conducting literature reviews and knowledge of reference management software (e.g., Endnote or similar).
- Experience preparing research ethics applications and regulatory applications.
- Experience developing and administering data collection tools using online data capture platforms such as REDCap.
- Experience conducting quantitative data analyses (e.g., use of statistical software, descriptive analyses).
- Excellent organizational skills with high attention to detail and determined attitude towards ensuring accuracy and integrity.
- Excellent problem-solving and critical-thinking skills.
- Excellent verbal and written communication skills (e.g., experience writing academic manuscripts for publication in peer-reviewed journals as well as reports for key stakeholders).
- Ability to work effectively independently and collaboratively within a dynamic, multi-disciplinary team environment.
- Familiarity with regulatory guidelines and ethical considerations in research involving human subjects. Certification in Good Clinical Practice (GCP) or Clinical Research Coordinator (CRC) is a plus.
