December 2023 - The Epidemiology Monitor by The Epidemiology Monitor

A monthly update covering people, events, research, and key developments

The Upcoming Year In Epidemiology - 2024 We are pleased to present our annual calendar of worldwide epidemiology and biostatistics events. As always, these events are categorized as conventions/meetings, short courses, and Summer/Winter programs. The list is built based on submissions from the sponsoring entities, events that have been historically listed in our calendar, and web searches to uncover new events to add to the list. There are events around the world including this year’s WCE in Cape Town, South Africa and events in Lagos, Munich, Melbourne and more. Our 2024 calendar continues to show a rebound in events post-COVID. In 2022 we had 103 events. Last year there were 136. This year we have listed a record breaking 179 events, of which 52 are new to the calendar. Of note is the explosion in fascinating online short courses offered throughout the year. While we make a concerted effort to unearth events, we often miss some that should have been added. If you are hosting an event that you would like included in the web based version of our calendar please submit it here and we will add it to our online calendar. That will also ensure that we will search for it when we build the 2025 calendar next year. A special note for summer programs: while your events are listed here, our February issue will be focused on your programs and we need additional information from you. Please contact michele@epimonitor.net so we can update your program profile. Look forward to seeing you in 2024!

Open-Rank, Tenured / Tenure-Track Faculty Position The Department of Epidemiology and Prevention in the Wake Forest University School of Medicine is experiencing a period of tremendous growth and opportunity, with several ongoing faculty searches underway. With this posting, we are actively recruiting multiple faculty at all ranks who are tenured or tenure-eligible. We are specifically seeking to recruit epidemiologists with methodologic research interests and experience in conducting clinical trials, pragmatic trials, or applying causal inference and pharmacoepidemiology methodologies for target trial emulation. These positions will significantly contribute to Institutional goals for leveraging our uniquely positioned health system and integrated academic mission to execute clinical trials at scale within the health system. Faculty recruited in these roles will have opportunities to lead in the development of systems, including clinical and electronic health record (EHR) resources, that are critical to high-impact clinical trial infrastructure, trial implementation, and target trial emulation. For methodologists, there will be opportunities to design EHR-based real world cohorts for pragmatic trials and epidemiologic studies that span the entire health system, including the South and Midwest regions of the United States. Individuals with interests in target trial emulation, transporting clinical trial treatment effects to real world cohorts, and pharmacoepidemiology are encouraged to apply. This position recruitment may reside in either Winston-Salem or Charlotte, North Carolina. The new strategic partnership between Wake Forest University School of Medicine, Atrium Health, and Advocate (below) has created an unparalleled opportunity for epidemiological research. Wake Forest University School of Medicine Wake Forest University School of Medicine (WFUSM) serves as the academic core of Advocate Health and is among the top 50 research institutions in the United States.

The health organization is comprised of more than 1,000 care sites and 67 hospitals across 6 states spanning the Southeastern and Midwestern portions of the United States. The expertise, size, and scope of our highly integrated enterprise positions us to be uniquely poised to identify mechanisms of disease, and address barriers and challenges associated with the translation of research into effective strategies for the prevention and treatment of disease.

Qualifications ♦ Desire and ability to work collaboratively across disciplines ♦ Active research portfolio demonstrating methodologic research interests and experience in conducting clinical trials, pragmatic trials, or methodological skills in harnessing real world data sources for target trial emulation and causal inference, commensurate with rank ♦ An established record of obtaining extramural funding ♦ Exceptional methodological skills relevant to the conduct of clinical trials, pragmatic trials, and/or target trial emulation methods using EHR data resources ♦ Demonstrated commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion ♦ Commitment to teaching and mentoring graduate, post-graduate, junior faculty, and/or clinicians
