Avery Road Treatment Center (ARTC) in Rockville, MD is seeking a full-time research assistant. The ideal applicant has at least an undergraduate degree in a scientific field (e.g., psychology) and experience or interest in clinical research on substance use disorder treatment and recovery. The research assistant will work closely with staff research scientists and study coordinators primarily on clinical trials exploring innovative approaches to improve treatment outcomes for individuals with opioid use disorder and/or alcohol use disorder or commonly co-occurring disorders such as posttraumatic stress disorder. Our research is typically sponsored by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) or the pharmaceutical industry. For example, current trials include an exciting study testing a GLP-1 agonist drug for the treatment of alcohol use disorder and opioid use disorder sponsored by Eli Lilly as well as testing a novel combination of medicines to improve outcomes for patients with opioid use disorder sponsored by NIH.
ARTC is part of Maryland Treatment Centers (MTC), an established regional behavioral health provider focused on clinical excellence, innovation, and scholarship. We are a complex center offering a full continuum of levels of care for the treatment of addictions and co-occurring disorders. In addition to MTC's primary clinical operations, we have an enthusiastic research team and a 20-year legacy of conducting clinical research on addictions and co-occurring disorders. Collaborators have included investigators from Friends Research Institute, Partnership to End Addiction, Johns Hopkins University, University of Maryland Baltimore, University of Maryland Baltimore County, University of Pennsylvania, Columbia University, and Dartmouth College. We have also conducted trials with partners at the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) through the Clinical Trials Network (CTN).
Responsibilities would include:
  • Helping to coordinate study advertisements
  • Effectively interfacing with study subjects throughout the study with compassion and attention to patient care.
  • Subject recruitment and screening in person and over the telephone
  • Screening and enrollment of study participants; conducting informed consent discussions
  • Scheduling and conducting study assessments which may include study assessments such as administering questionnaires, patient interviews, ECGs, vital signs, or other study procedures according to the study protocol.
  • Scheduling and conducting subject follow-up visits/assessments as appropriate to specific study objectives. Maintaining contact with study participants between visits.
  • Interfacing and collaborating with the research medical team to facilitate patient care
  • Maintaining data collection and entry systems according to the research protocol
  • Assisting the site manager and other study staff in a flexible manner as the study and its associated duties evolve
  • May involve some off-site visits in order to perform job functions (preferred to have reliable vehicle for transporting yourself)
  • Opportunities to be involved with dissemination of data (e.g., poster presentations)

Qualifications:
  • Bachelor's degree in a scientific field required
  • One year of experience in clinical research preferred
  • Demonstrated competence in oral and written communication
  • Strong organizational skills, attention to detail, and interpersonal skills
