<div>The Research Assistant II will support the RECOVER clinical trial, a multi-center study evaluating Vagus Nerve Stimulation (VNS) Therapy for individuals with treatment-resistant depression (TRD), conducted at the Center for Interventional Psychiatry (CIP) at the UCT Clinic. This position plays a critical role in participant identification, eligibility determination, study coordination, and long-term follow-up of participants enrolled in VNS research.
The position requires extensive review and interpretation of psychiatric and medical records to determine study eligibility, including assessment of prior antidepressant medication trials, psychotherapy history, psychiatric hospitalizations, neuromodulation treatments, medical comorbidities, and other factors relevant to treatment-resistant depression. The Research Assistant II must be able to synthesize complex clinical information and communicate findings effectively to investigators and clinical staff.
Responsibilities include participant recruitment, informed consent, clinical and research assessments, regulatory documentation, data collection, and coordination of study procedures across screening, implantation, and longitudinal follow-up phases. The Research Assistant II will work closely with psychiatrists, neurosurgeons, research coordinators, sponsors, and study participants to ensure compliance with study protocols, Good Clinical Practice (GCP), and regulatory requirements.
This position is ideal for individuals with advanced training in health sciences, psychology, psychiatry, or medicine who are interested in clinical research involving treatment-resistant depression, neuromodulation, and interventional psychiatry. Schedule is Monday through Friday, with routine start times at 8:00 AM, at our Center for Interventional Psychiatry Clinic. Occasional flexibility may be required based on participant schedules and study needs.
Candidates may possess a Master&rsquo;s degree in Psychology, Neuroscience, Public Health, Clinical Research, Nursing, Social Work, or a related health sciences field, or an MD (or equivalent) obtained outside the United States that does not require U.S. licensure for this research position. The ideal candidate demonstrates strong knowledge of psychiatric disorders, including treatment-resistant depression, as well as psychopharmacology, psychotherapy interventions, and common medical comorbidities. Experience conducting comprehensive medical record reviews and synthesizing complex psychiatric and medical histories is essential, along with the ability to evaluate prior medication trials, psychotherapy treatments, psychiatric hospitalizations, and neuromodulation interventions to support study eligibility determinations. Candidates should have a solid understanding of Good Clinical Practice (GCP), human subjects protection, and research ethics, and experience coordinating clinical research studies and interacting with study participants. Familiarity with interventional psychiatry treatments&mdash;such as Vagus Nerve Stimulation (VNS), Electroconvulsive Therapy (ECT), Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS), and ketamine-based therapies&mdash;is strongly preferred. Proficiency with Epic, REDCap, Microsoft Office, electronic data capture systems, and experience with source documentation, regulatory compliance, and electronic case report forms (eCRFs) are required. The role demands strong organizational, communication, and interpersonal skills, strict adherence to confidentiality and HIPAA requirements, and experience working with individuals with major depressive disorder, treatment-resistant depression, bipolar disorder, or other serious mental illnesses.

Patient Account Representative II - Rev Cycle

<div>The Children's Learning Institute (CLI) at UTHealth Houston is seeking a Data Scientist to support our Texas State Initiatives (TSI); a portfolio of large-scale, statewide programs at the intersection of advanced analytics, applied education research, and emerging AI/ML technologies. Our work centers on state-level educational data spanning a range of large-scale statewide systems, including CLI Engage, our instructional delivery and assessment platform, and TECPDS, the Texas Early Childhood Professional Development System, which serves as the statewide workforce registry tracking educator credentials, training, and professional development. Together these systems generate large, heterogeneous datasets linking educator characteristics, instructional practice, and child outcomes across the state of Texas. This work involves close collaboration with State Education Agencies (SEAs), Local Education Agencies (LEAs), and other stakeholders to generate rigorous, policy-relevant insights that directly shape how Texas supports its early childhood workforce and the children they serve. Supported by long-standing state contracts, this position offers the stability of sustained, mission-driven work at the intersection of research and public policy. 
 
The successful candidate will engage in analytically rich and methodologically varied work across a range of research and evaluation questions, including randomized controlled trials and quasi-experimental studies. This includes multilevel and growth modeling, psychometric and IRT analyses, structural equation modeling, latent variable and mixture approaches, and classification methods, among others. The candidate should be prepared to work fluidly across these methods as research and evaluation questions evolve. The datasets involved are large, multi-source, and frequently updated, with nested and longitudinal structures, requiring both statistical sophistication and strong data engineering instincts. Much of this work has direct policy and scientific implications, and findings must be translated into compelling visual products including dashboards, interactive reports, data visualizations, and graphical summaries for state agency partners and program staff, as well as scholarly and technical products. 
 
TSI is an active and growing area of applied AI and machine learning work hosted on AWS. The Data Scientist is expected to meaningfully engage with AI/ML workflows as they relate to analytic and research goals. This includes contributing to predictive modeling and classification for large-scale assessment and workforce data, NLP-based approaches to instructional quality monitoring and document processing, AI-assisted automation of reporting and survey analysis, and generative AI applications supporting educators and program staff. Intellectual curiosity about these methods and a willingness to learn and apply them in service of applied research and operational analytics are essential. 
 
In addition to the core analytic work, the Data Scientist will support both recurring, large-scale reporting (annual, quarterly) and higher-frequency deliverables (e.g., weekly or near-real-time monitoring reports), with the expectation that analytic workflows will be built and maintained to be efficient, reproducible, and responsive to programmatic change. This position will work closely with a faculty manager, who will provide substantive and methodological guidance as needed. Proficiency in SAS is crucial, as many existing data pipelines and analyses are implemented and documented in SAS, and the candidate should be able to understand, maintain, and adapt legacy code including SAS macros. Proficiency in R or Python is also required. Opportunities exist to contribute to a range of scholarly and technical products commensurate with interest and contribution, including peer-reviewed publications, grant applications, technical reports and white papers, methods and software documentation, Shiny applications, and open-source analytic tools hosted on GitHub.
