Movement Disorders Specialist, Clinical Trialist

The Division of Movement Disorders at Brigham and Women’s Hospital is seeking an academic clinician-scientist with expertise in developing a clinical trials program to transform scientific discovery into patient care delivery. The academic title of Instructor, Assistant Professor, or Associate Professor at Harvard Medical School will be commensurate with experience and scholarship in the field. S/he/They will focus on the development of clinical trials with federal, industry, and foundation partnerships. The candidate will develop a clinical practice within the Division, and time will be protected to execute on the clinical trials mission. We anticipate protecting 50% effort for clinical research, but this can be tailored to the candidate. Outside of the primary clinical trials objective, the position can be tailored to the candidate with opportunities in teaching, mentoring, administrative and clinical operations. Senior candidates will have the opportunity to be considered for leadership positions at the Department level and inter-Departmental level with Neurosurgery and Genetics.

The Division of Movement Disorders ad the Brigham & Women's Hospital works in close concert with its counterpart division at the Massachusetts General Hospital providing exciting collaborative opportunities. Our Division faculty frequently see and recruit patients for clinical research at both sites. 

Candidates should have a Massachusetts license to practice medicine and must be board-eligible or certified in Neurology. The candidate should possess a strong record as a clinician-investigator in the field and should have a passionate commitment to patient car, teach, and collegiality.
