Overview

The University of Minnesota Stroke Program is seeking a nurse research coordinator to join our nationally-recognized stroke clinical research program. This position will join a dynamic and collaborative integrated team of research coordinators, stroke physicians, advanced practice providers, and research fellows and associates in our mission to advance the treatment of stroke. Stroke is a leading cause of death and disability, impacting everyone regardless of age, sex, race, and socioeconomic status. Our clinical trials focus on 1) emergent interventional treatment, 2) preventing recurrent stroke, and 3) stroke recovery. The Stroke Research Coordinator RN2 position encompasses a range of skillsets and roles. This position will be trained to perform as lead coordinator for stroke clinical trials enrolling and following patients at multiple hospitals within our health system. The coordinator prepares IRB submissions, maintains delegation of authority logs, consents and enrolls subjects, performs patient assessments, collects and enters data in both the inpatient and outpatient settings. In addition, the coordinator will oversee the efforts of both the clinical and research teams to ensure trial operations are in compliance with study protocols. In doing so, the coordinator, in tandem with the Study PI, leads our program's contribution to the most important research in our field, including local investigator-initiated studies and large multicenter NIH and Business and Industry supported trials. Opportunities: This position works within the Stroke Program and Acute Care Research Coordinator Teams thereby receiving expert mentorship and training from leading trialists and coordinators in our field. We anticipate additional opportunities for training, certification, and leadership that coincide with the coordinator's skillset and career goals.
