The Infectious Diseases Clinical Research Unit (ID CRU) situated within the Division of Infectious Diseases at Massachusetts General Hospital plays a pivotal role in orchestrating diverse clinical trials. These trials contribute valuable findings in areas like vaccine development innovative antifungal treatments and exploration of long-term symptoms linked to the year ahead we look forward to implementing several clinical trials including a study on the feasibility and impact of long-acting PrEP injections and navigation services for people who inject drugs an ongoing observational study of individuals who have had COVID investigations into potential new therapies for Long COVID.

The ID CRU is deeply devoted to improving health equity in our community. It is well known that clinical research has disproportionately under-recruited from Black Asian and Hispanic populations. This has led to challenges in distributing the benefits of research to the very people who may most benefit from it. We at the CRU aim to change that by putting health equity at the core of our trials and by collaborating with community leaders to engage in participatory care. This role specifically is seeking a CRC that is fluent in spoken and written Spanish to provide support to our Spanish speaking participants within the Long COVID trail.

Our burgeoning team seeks mission-driven intellectually curious interactive detail-oriented and flexible members. A sense of humor is a must.

We anticipate our CRCs going on to pursue careers in medicine public health epidemiology and/or health policy research.
