The Division of Infectious Diseases seeks a Research Program Coordinator who is a bright, hardworking professional to join our group under the supervision of a senior research program coordinator and a Principal Investigator (PI) in the Division of Infectious Diseases at the Johns Hopkins Bayview Medical Center. The program coordinator will form an integral part of the team implementing an NIH-supported study focused on women's reproductive health. The program coordinator will be responsible for recruiting, consenting, and enrolling patients, maintaining study documentation, and ensuring correct implementation of study procedures.

The position requires precision in documentation of clinical and research data, maintenance of regulatory methods, research participant and patient scheduling, and miscellaneous administrative responsibilities, as well as a commitment to improving women's reproductive health.
