Program Coordinator

 

JOB DESCRIPTION:


CBNS is looking for a program coordinator to administer a lung cancer screening program. This project is an important component of a large nationwide medical surveillance program funded by the US Department of Energy. Lung cancer screening participants are nuclear weapons production workers, formerly or currently employed by the US Department of Energy.    The purpose of the lung cancer screening program is to use low-dose computerized tomography (CT) to detect lung cancer at an early stage, when treatment is much more likely to be successful.

 

The individual will be assisting the administrative director with all aspects of the lung cancer screening program including the:

       Program participant selection, invitation, scheduling and outreach

       Implementation of screening guidelines and procedures, including development of project guidebooks and checklists

       Supervision of quality control activities and quality assurance systems

       Preparation and tracking of program material submissions to two institutional review boards (annually and when materials are modified)

       Various participant follow-up and occupational health/lung cancer-related research projects

       Presentation of program updates and data at conferences and meetings

       Supervision of support staff

 

The program coordinator will also:

             Act as liaison between Queens College and project staff at the local screening sites including the CT technologists

             Act as liaison between Queens College and the International Early Lung Cancer Action Program (I-ELCAP) (the data coordination center for an international lung cancer screening program, of which Queens College is one of the largest contributors)

 

This would be an exciting project for someone with an interest in occupational safety and health and/or medical screening for the early detection of disease.   

 

Qualifications:   Master’s in Public Health, or MPH student

                           Concentration in occupational health a plus
