Research coordinator for the Swiss Paediatric Airway Cohort Study

vor 2 Wochen

Bern, Schweiz University of Bern Vollzeit
ISPM University of Bern, Switzerland
Asthma is the most common chronic respiratory disease in childhood. However, asthma diagnosis in children is still complex and we still do not know which child will continue to have symptoms later in life and which will grow out of it. The Swiss Paediatric Airway Cohort (SPAC) study is an ongoing large clinical cohort study of currently more than 4500 children seen in several respiratory outpatient clinics in Switzerland, funded by the Swiss National Science Foundation. We look for an experienced research coordinator, who will be responsible for the project management of the SPAC study.

Job description
The candidate will work at ISPM Bern and will manage the SPAC study. This will include the following tasks:
  1. Manage the study database, conduct and oversee data entry and monitor data completeness.
  2. Communicate with stakeholders including collaborating clinicians and participants.
  3. Coordinate meetings with internal team members and external collaborators.
  4. Develop and conduct online questionnaire surveys and databases.
  5. Support nested clinical projects in the SPAC study team.
  6. Contribute to data analysis, preparation of research publications, newsletters, study website and reports.
  7. Conduct some administrative tasks of the research groups.

Requirements
  1. Bachelor's or master's degree in health sciences, public health, epidemiology or a related field.
  2. Experience in working with study databases (e.g., REDCap) and data management for research purposes.
  3. Experience in questionnaire development and collection of health-related data.
  4. Basic knowledge of statistics would be advantageous.
  5. Ideally experience with clinical studies and hospital-based research.
  6. Strong scientific and non-scientific writing and communication skills.
  7. Native proficiency in German and fluency in English (French would be an asset).
  8. Ability to work independently and interact with interdisciplinary teams.
  9. Interest in paediatrics, child health and childhood respiratory disease in particular.

If you are looking for an exciting position in a highly motivated interdisciplinary team, send your CV with motivation letter in a single file to the SPAC study team (spac.ispm@unibe.ch) and to Mari Sasaki (mari.sasaki@unibe.ch). For further information, contact us by e-mail. Please send your application as soon as possible, at the latest by February 16th, 2025.
