Research Program Coordinator I – Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC)
The Disparities Research Exploring Addiction Mechanisms (DREAM) Lab at the MUSC Hollings Cancer Center is seeking a full-time Research Program Coordinator I (PC I) to support NIH- and Foundation-funded studies focused on reducing tobacco-related health disparities. Our work aims to: 1) determine which populations are disproportionately at risk for tobacco use and addiction across the lifespan (e.g., young adults, groups from low socioeconomic status [SES], rural, and racial/ethnic minority backgrounds); 2) identify mechanisms underlying tobacco use in high-risk groups; and 3) evaluate whether lower-risk nicotine products and other strategies can promote smoking cessation and harm reduction. This position offers hands-on experience across a wide range of study designs, including qualitative research, cross-sectional and longitudinal cohort studies, human laboratory paradigms, and remote clinical trials. The Research Program Coordinator I will work closely with the PI, Dr. Mariel Bello, and a collaborative research team, and will play a key role in the day-to-day operations and success of multiple ongoing studies.
Why Join the DREAM Lab?
•Contribute to impactful, health equity-focused research addressing tobacco-related health disparities
• Receive direct mentorship from the PI, a licensed clinical psychologist, and gain exposure to grant writing and manuscript development
• Gain hands-on experience across diverse research methodologies (clinical, laboratory, and community-engaged research)
• Develop leadership and project management skills
• Strong preparation for graduate training in clinical psychology, public health, medicine, or related fields
The DREAM Lab values collaboration, mentorship, and a supportive team environment, and is committed to fostering the professional development of all team members.
