60 Carver Data Analyst Jobs Hiring Near You

SUMMARY:

The Cochlear Implant Electrophysiology Laboratory in the Department of Otolaryngology - Carver College of Medicine seeks to hire a Research Audiologist/Project Coordinator to join a dynamic, interdisciplinary team of clinician researchers. Our research aims to expand the diagnostic test battery of auditory function for human cochlear implant candidates and recipients. We use electrophysiological tools to characterize the peripheral auditory system and investigate the association with surgical and performance-based outcomes. In addition to our own institutionally driven research, we frequently support manufacturer trials.

The Research Audiologist will translate clinical skills to research protocols. The individual will work as part of a team with researchers and clinicians from otolaryngology, neurobiology, genetics and communication science and will collaborate with colleagues at external institutions. Responsibilities will include knowledge of and adherence to regulatory guidelines, identification of eligible participants, recruitment/consent, coordination with scheduling, independent audiologic/research assessments (including but not limited to immittance, pure-tone audiometry, speech perception, electrical impedance, electrically evoked compound action potential, electrocochleography, stapedial reflex testing), data management and analysis, detailed documentation and record keeping, and equipment maintenance and troubleshooting. The individual should be comfortable in both surgical and non-surgical settings for intra-operative and post-operative assessments. In addition, the individual will help interpret data from a clinical perspective and will have opportunities to assist in the dissemination of research findings (e.g. development of newsletters, infographics, social media posts, oral presentations, and preparation of manuscripts), and to participate in other activities as required.
