✔ 4+ years experience designing and delivering observational research studies
✔ Experience writing statistical analysis plans and study protocols
✔ Understanding of advanced epidemiological methodologies
✔ Ability to communicate complex scientific concepts clearly to varied audiences
✔ Previous experience working with pharma, biotech, or healthcare research stakeholders
Additional experience that would stand out:
⭐ Oncology or rare disease research
⭐ Experience working with EMR, claims, registry, or linked healthcare datasets
