The applicant will conduct research in the inpatient and/or outpatient settings at Carilion Clinic working closely to coordinate projects with the medical leadership in quality and population health. The specific focus of research is on using advanced computational methodologies, including the development and application of fundamental and advanced artificial intelligence (AI), including generative AI, machine learning, deep learning, natural language processing, or computer vision to advance our understanding of data related to improving quality of care, improving patient outcomes, and building capacity, for integrating scientific evidence, data, and best practices into the care delivery process. Innovation in these areas used in the context of implementation science is a requirement. The successful candidate will have the opportunity to envision the strategic growth plan for data science related research and operationalize to improve quality care.

Physician candidates must be board-certified as they will contribute to clinical care and the training/mentoring of graduate and medical student, residents and fellows.

Other Minimum Qualifications: Candidates considered for positions at the associate or full professor rank are expected to have substantial active extramural research funding, particularly from the NIH or other federal agencies, foundations and/or industry.

Successful candidates will be expected to maintain a high-quality applied research program, build an extramurally funded research program, maintain their clinical activity and teaching if appropriate, and either maintain or develop high-profile national/global recognition as leaders in their respective fields of implementation science and medicine.
