About The Position

The Research Coordinator provides assistance to the Principal Investigator and Study Team coordinating research activities that may include recruiting research participants, data collection and management and other research activities as assigned.

This is an on-site position assigned to the Tripler Army Medical Center and the Desmond T. Doss Health Clinic. A thorough government background check will be required.

About The Project :

The position will support the Musculoskeletal Injury Rehabilitation Research for Operational Readiness (MIRROR) Program. This program was established to support the execution of clinically relevant research to advance the care of service members with non-combat related musculoskeletal injury (MSI). Headquartered at the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences (USU), MIRROR provides coordination and support of inter-service and inter-disciplinary partnerships across military treatment facilities (MTFs), military training centers (MTCs), and civilian academic centers to execute cutting-edge research in order to mitigate the burden of MSI on military readiness.

This role will specifically contribute to a research initiative titled, PREDICT : Predicting Resilience Effects on Downstream Injuries and Costs over Time. This project aims to understand the roles of resilience and coping in successful recovery and will advance knowledge in areas of injury prevention, reduction and rehabilitation by uncovering confounders to successful management, treatment and rehabilitation. We are interested in knowing if self-reported resilience and / or coping, measured at the first appointment for the injury, can predict if a person will recover, how long it will take, whether it will become a recurrent problem, and how many limited duty days the injury will translate to.
