Clinical Research Coordinator
Work Arrangement: Hybrid (On-Site and Remote mix) Location: Durham, NC, US, 27710 Personnel Area: MEDICAL CENTER
School of Medicine Established in 1930, Duke University School of Medicine is the youngest of the nation's top medical schools. Ranked sixth among medical schools in the nation, the School takes pride in being an inclusive community of outstanding learners, investigators, clinicians, and staff where interdisciplinary collaboration is embraced and great ideas accelerate translation of fundamental scientific discoveries to improve human health locally and around the globe. Composed of more than 2,600 faculty physicians and researchers, nearly 2,000 students, and more than 6,200 staff, the Duke University School of Medicine along with the Duke University School of Nursing, and Duke University Health System comprise Duke Health, a world-class academic medical center.

About the Bellwether Collaborative for Health Justice: As part of the Duke University Department of Population Health Sciences, it is the mission of the Bellwether Collaborative for Health Justice to shine a light on how the criminal legal system acts a structural determinant of health and impacts population and individual level health outcomes. We are an interdisciplinary research team, led by Dr. Lauren Brinkley-Rubinstein. Our work draws on the expertise of criminal legal system-involved persons and carceral and community stakeholders to inform innovative research that has practice and policy implications.
About the Research: Overdose is one of the leading causes of death in the US. People who are exposed to or impacted by the criminal legal system disproportionately report using substances and experience high rates of overdose. Community Paramedic or Post-Overdose Response Team programs have grown across the country to address this crisis. These teams respond during and after overdoses to offer life-saving supportincluding naloxone, medications for opioid use disorder (MOUD), and connections to health and social services, to help people get care rather than face arrest or incarceration. However, these programs mostly focus on individual-level care. Research shows that broader issueslike lack of housing, difficulty accessing public benefits, and unmet legal needsalso drive overdose risk. These are sometimes called "health-harming legal needs" (HHLN). Medical-Legal Partnerships bring together legal and healthcare professionals to address these deeper challenges and reduce the chance of future overdose harm. The hired candidate will join our work on the CROSSROADS study, which is an Implementation Effectiveness Trial designed to compare the community paramedic standard of care to an intervention that leverages Medical-Legal Partnerships. The study is taking place at four sitesDurham and Orange Counties, NC; Portland, ME; Miami, FL; and Pittsburgh, PA.
