Department of Epidemiology and Biostatistics
Seeking Associate/Full Professor in Health Care Organization, Outcomes, and Policy:
The Department of Epidemiology and Biostatistics at Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine ( http://epbiwww.case.edu/ ) seeks an Associate or Full Professor in Health Care Organization, Outcomes, and Policy – one of four concentrations in the department’s PhD program in Population Health Sciences. Rank and tenure will depend on qualifications. The candidate should have a national reputation in research and a strong record of publications and research funding. All areas of research are invited; however, preference will be given to candidates with research interests in: health policy, health services and outcomes research, health economics, health care administration. The candidate is expected to direct the existing AHRQ Training grant in Health Services Research.

The department is growing with 25 faculty with primary appointments (and currently recruiting for 4 positions), 57 secondary appointments, and 41 adjunct appointments. The PhD program in Population Health Sciences has 41 PhD students, and 4 concentrations: Health Care Organization, Outcomes, & Policy; Global Health Epidemiology; Health Behavior & Prevention; and Genetic Epidemiology & Bioinformatics. 7 PhD and MD/PhD students are supported by the Health Services Research T32 training grant, which the program has had for about 20 years. The department also has a thriving Master of Public Health degree program with 115 students and many dual-degree programs. The new MS in Biostatistics program currently has 18 students.

Case Western Reserve University and its associated hospitals (University Hospitals/Rainbow Babies, MetroHealth Medical Center, Cleveland Clinic, and VA Medical Center) provide a rich environment for clinical and population health research. Department faculty actively collaborate with key partners: the Prevention Research Center for Healthy Neighborhoods ( www.prchn.org ); Comprehensive Cancer Center; the Clinical and Translational Science Collaborative ( http://casemed.case.edu/ctsc/ ), which recently received a $64.6 million renewal grant from NIH; Tuberculosis Research Unit; Center for Healthcare Research and Policy ( http://www.chrp.org ); Center for Global Health and Diseases ( http://www.case.edu/orgs/cghd/ ); all of the local health departments.
