The Contractor shall maintain flexible work hours to accommodate needs that may change during compressed review timelines. The Epidemiologist Writer will ensure that all work complies with laws, polices and regulations applicable to CBER’s practices for review of vaccines and related biological products.

Responsibilities:
  • Assist CBER/OBPV staff in preparing first drafts/multiple drafts of responses to requests for information on biologics from a variety of sources including the public, academia, the media, and government sources.

  • Assist in the development of visual communication aids including graphs, figures, and infographics.
  • Assist CBER/OBPV staff in reviewing and interpreting data analyses and suggest additional analysis.

  • Excellent writing skills and experience with document preparation, together with strong formatting, editing, and organization skills.
  • Experience in synthesizing and disseminating information regarding complex issues, decisions, or policies.
  • project management skills to plan, organize and coordinate numerous projects and time sensitive assignments.
  • Capable computer skills to execute the tasks required by the position; knowledgeable about scientific and document preparation software: Word, Excel, PowerPoint, or similar reference software.
Preferred Experience:
