The expected pay for this position is $5,744.32/month.
A Research Associate (RA) position is available at the University of British Columbia (UBC), Division of Respiratory Medicine, Department of Medicine under the direction of Dr. Scott J. Tebbutt, Professor of Medicine of UBC Faculty of Medicine and Principal Investigator and Director of Education of Centre for Heart Lung Innovation at St Paul's Hospital.
The RA will work with an interdisciplinary and international team to support the Immunophenotyping of a COVID-19 pneumonia Cohort (IMPACC) Study. The RA and Dr. Tebbutt's team members will identify molecular endotypes of long-COVID-19 (also called Post COVID-19 Syndrome) during and after COVID-19 infection, in peripheral blood, plasma, nasal swabs, and airway tissue samples, by carrying out unsupervised analysis of multi-omics profiles at a single time-point or considering the time-course profile during infection. Dr. Tebbutt's team aims to characterize the molecular heterogeneity during COVID-19 infection and to develop biomarkers of prognostic significance as they relate to the development of long-COVID-19. The distinct molecular patterns associated with each endotype may, in turn, help elucidate novel mechanisms of action and inform drug discovery and repurposing efforts.
**Responsibilities will include, but will not be limited to**:
Performing critical evaluation of clinical data
Analysis of experimental data, statistical analyses (including omics), preparation of manuscripts and scientific reports, and dissemination of research findings.
Being current on emerging COVID-19 interventions and models of care, including in the respiratory space
Performing literature and systematic reviews relevant to above-noted goals
Facilitating the development of scope and strategies for research registries
Developing reports and manuscripts for publication
Preparing and delivering presentations for research meetings
Preparing background documents for stakeholder meetings
Participating in stakeholder engagement meetings
Coordinating research activities and chairing and co-chairing research team meetings
Providing other support as required to Dr. Tebbutt, researchers and team
**Requirements**:
MD and MSc degree with 3+ years of relevant postdoctoral experience in respiratory medicine or thoracic research
A minimum of 5 years of clinical work experience in respiratory/thoracic medicine
Extensive experience and knowledge of metabolomics, acute lung injury, and preclinical drug development
Extensive research experience of COVID-19 studies
Demonstrated high-quality publication record in COVID-19 research: i.e., multiple first-author publications about COVID-19 in high-impact journals such as NEJM, Lancet, Lancet Respir Med, JAMA, JAMA Intern Med, BMJ, AJRCCM, PNAS, etc.
Experience in studying biomarkers for diagnosing complex diseases of the lungs
Demonstrated experience in managing multiple projects with conflicting timelines and priorities, and excellent time-management skills
Duration and salary
The position will begin March 1st, 2025, for a period of 1 year with the possibility of extension.
