We are seeking a highly motivated and detail-oriented individual to join our team at the UCLA Center for Cancer Prevention and Control Research (CPCR) to serve as Project Coordinator for a behavioral intervention clinical trial, as well as provide support as needed for other research projects, including those focused on clinical trials for treatment, symptom management and prevention in cancer patients and survivors. Under the general supervision of the Principal Investigator, the chosen candidate will coordinate the delivery of a digital behavioral intervention program for younger women with a history of breast cancer who have elevated depressive symptoms. Recruitment, eligibility screening, and informed consent will be managed by one of the NCI Clinical Trials Network organizations, which works with community clinics and hospitals across the US. The UCLA Project Coordinator will be responsible for welcoming patients to the study (e-mail communication), assembling them for subsequent randomization to one of three digitally delivered mindfulness meditation interventions, and overseeing intervention delivery. The coordinator will be involved in the full range of project activities including being in communication with the clinical sites that are recruiting study participants, responding to study eligibility questions, coordinating the collection of electronic baseline questionnaire data, and supervising the assignment of the intervention activities at UCLA once participants have completed baseline data collection and been randomized to the treatment arm. In addition, the coordinator will facilitate delivery of the interventions, including selection and monitoring of mindfulness instructors and ensuring patients have access to the digital programs, and will help to monitor adherence to and fidelity of the interventions. The coordinator will work closely with the study data manager to develop and utilize data tracking systems to monitor the participation of the enrolled participants, as well work closely with staff at the collaborating clinical trials organization; maintain detailed and accurate documentation of all project activities; develop agendas, presentations and supporting documentation for research meetings; maintain all necessary UCLA IRB approvals; draft progress reports; and participate in the development of presentations and manuscripts for academic and community audiences.
