The Emory University School of Medicine, Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics Division of Gynecologic Oncology is seeking a Clinical Research Coordinator II (CRC II). The CRC II will support three studies under the Supervision of the Manager, Research Projects.

 

The ANCHOR study is a groundbreaking study which proved that treating anal high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (HSIL) among people living with HIV reduces incidence of anal cancer. These novel findings are expected to change clinical care for people living with HIV (PLWH). This study has completed patient enrollment and is in the follow-up stage.

 

The second study is the Oral HOV Study on Oral microbiome and periodontal diseases in oral HPV infection among people living with HIV. This longitudinal study seeks to understand the role of the oral microbiome and periodontal diseases in oral HPV infection among people with HIV (PWH). Findings will provide evidence that may inform future targeted interventions to reduce oral HPV infection and lower related cancer incidence among PLWH.

 

The third and final study is the CHESS (Community, Home-based Education, Screening Services) Strategy to increase cervical cancer control access for HIV positive women in Nigeria study. This study leverages existing HIV treatment infrastructure in Nigeria to integrate cervical cancer control activities into the successful MoMent (MOther MENTor) peer-based HIV support program. This novel study is a partnership between researchers at Emory and Nigerian partners.
