Nurse Clinical Research

Responsible for coordination of care and treatment of human subjects related to their participation in Department of Neurological Sciences (DONS) research studies. The research nurse coordinator will be predominantly responsible for studies that involve investigation of new medications or treatments for subjects with neurologic disorders. This includes inpatient and outpatient care for subjects with neurologic disorders, and encompasses the entire research continuum from subject recruitment to guiding subjects through the defined research study protocol. The coordinator assumes responsibility for critical coordination and management of the complex decisions and regulatory requirements of each research protocol including necessary documentation requirements of study related activities, measurements and adverse events. The research nurse coordinator may also be involved in other DONS research studies that may include research registries, Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI) projects, and investigator-initiated studies of novel biomarkers, diagnostic imaging and technology to capture and predict performance of subjects with neurologic disorders.
