Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada The University of British Columbia Full time
Job Summary

This research position involves providing research facilitation and analysis for ongoing and future projects. The primary responsibilities include providing research facilitation and analysis for projects funded by the Ministry of Health, collaborating with the Canadian Network for Observational Drug Effect Studies (CNODES), and participating in studies conducted by CNODES.

The Research Analyst will be responsible for planning, conducting, and interpreting research projects, including collaborating in identifying and planning research activities, assessing feasibility and reviewing background literature, analyzing data and interpreting findings, writing research protocols, reports, and manuscripts, attending project meetings, and collaborating in identifying, planning, and executing knowledge translation activities.

The Research Analyst will also be responsible for participating in studies conducted by CNODES, contributing to planning the different studies, analyzing data and interpreting findings, and cooperating with other team members in other Canadian provinces.

The Research Analyst will work with considerable latitude and independent thinking, making professional decisions and recommendations on all aspects of work.

Key Responsibilities
  • Research Planning: Writing research proposals, gathering, reviewing, and synthesizing literature relevant to research projects, planning and conducting feasibility analysis and interpreting findings, and developing and implementing project work plans and timelines.
  • Research Analysis: Participating in research project designing, designing and developing methodology for data assembly, analysis, and presentation, using statistical analysis packages (SAS, R, and SQL) to analyze administrative database, writing, executing, and assessing quality of SAS code to support CNODES projects and Ministry of Health deliverables, documenting quality assurance testing and coding methods, interpreting results, and responsible for quality of research and results.
  • Physician Prescribing Portrait Feedback Development, Production, and Evaluation: Using SAS, SQL, and R software to produce physician prescribing portraits by patient subgroups, working with physicians and project staff on formats for presenting results, in combination with evidence from literature, into portraits that are visually appealing to end users, maintaining a physician address database to be used by multiple TI Working Groups that tracks study participation indicators.
  • Writing: Conducting review of literature, and drafting summaries incorporating feedback from team members, writing, editing, and submission of research protocols, write abstracts, summary reports, and conference submissions, write articles for submission to peer-reviewed journals.
  • Communications: Maintaining collaboration and managing differences of opinion among the dispersed members of the research team, developing and maintaining an efficient communication system that is respectful of how busy the collaborators are.

Requirements

This position requires initiative and attention to detail. Errors or missteps in communication could produce friction among collaborators due to strong differences of opinion to how drug safety and effectiveness studies should be designed and implemented.

Accuracy and timeliness of tasks are critical in keeping research projects on time and on budget. Errors can lead to significant project delays.

Supervision

The work is largely independent. Works under the supervision of Dr. Greg Carney, who conducts analyses for both the BC MoH and CNODES observational studies, provides guidance on the databases and advice on analyses.
