Clinical Research Coordinator (CRC) The Disparities Research Unit at Massachusetts General Hospital is seeking CRCs for a study focused on addressing health and healthcare inequities in socially vulnerable communities. CRCs focus on outreach to potential research participants for a large, multisite research study. They will obtain consent from participants in person at participating clinics or by phone. CRCs will maintain efficient tracking of research activities and will support the preparation of REDCap-based data collection systems. Based on participant preference, CRCs will facilitate administration of screening and follow up interviews, either by facilitating patient access to data collection links at designated time frames, or administering interviews verbally if patients request. CRCs will work with the research team to monitor and follow up with hard‑to‑reach cases; to troubleshoot challenges in meeting milestones; and to support assurance of data quality through fidelity and quality control checks. Clinical Research Coordinators should be personable, attentive to detail, proactive, enjoy interacting with patients and be comfortable with a fast pace of outreach and follow up.
