Postdoc Fellowship Position summary/title: POSTDOCTORAL RESEARCH FELLOW IN PAIN MANAGEMENT AND C. ELEGANS
We are looking for a postdoctoral fellow who will strive to make a meaningful impact on maternal and child health by contributing to leading-edge research aimed at improving pain management.
Pain management is often under-emphasized, yet inadequate pain relief can interfere with a mother’s ability to care for her child, and can disrupt sleep, impact behaviour and cause vomiting in children. In light of the current opioid crisis, there is increased urgency to balance both safety and effectiveness of opioid-based analgesics, while simultaneously limiting the use of opioids. Given the resulting hesitancy associated with prescribing opioids, we are likely undertreating pain in women and children.

Postdoc Fellowship Position summary/title: POSTDOCTORAL FELLOWSHIP IN DECENTRALIZED HEALTH
This position is part of a large interdisciplinary effort led by Dr. Dean Regier (BC Cancer and UBC School of Public Health). The project focuses on healthcare systems that generate precision data, produce evidence, and use this evidence to guide patient care. Current healthcare systems are not designed to allow for learning healthcare. In response to this unmet need, two major Canadian precision oncology initiatives are building platforms for data sharing to enable learning healthcare systems. To guarantee their success, we need to understand their economic impact and make sure that their design is in line with patient and public values as well as Canadian laws and regulations. The Canadian Network for Learning Healthcare Systems and Cost-Effective ‘Omics Innovation (CLEO) will meet these design needs by partnering with Canadian learning healthcare system initiatives for precision oncology.
