UTHealth Houston’s Ophthalmology Department is hiring for a Research Coordinator II to join their team of professionals. We are seeking someone who is flexible and comfortable contributing across a broad range of activities, from navigating the Institutional Review Board process to providing clinical trial support.

• Oversee procurement of equipment and supplies to ensure timely support for active and upcoming studies.

• Coordinate and support Resident Research Day, including project identification, monitoring, and progress tracking.

Clinical Trials & Regulatory Support

• Serve as Clinical Trials Coordinator, ensuring regulatory compliance and protocol adherence.

• Facilitate Institutional Review Board (IRB) submissions and ongoing compliance for all studies.

• Guide and train research technicians and trainees in IRB processes and submission preparation.

• Oversee continuity of prospective studies despite scheduling limitations of rotating personnel.

Sponsored & Funded Projects

• Manage up to four industry-sponsored research projects annually, from initiation to payment collection.

• Support grant writing and submission processes for foundation-funded projects, enabling clinicians to meet deadlines and quality standards.

• Oversee complex documentation and IRB coordination for investigator-initiated, multi-site studies involving external institutions such as Retina Consultants of Texas, Baylor, and Methodist Hospital.

Data Management & Quality Control

• Conduct data extraction and feasibility analyses for retrospective studies.

• Clean and validate clinical data to ensure accuracy and integrity of research outputs.

• Monitor ongoing data collection for prospective studies and ensure quality standards are maintained.

This position is funded by grants that comprise 50%25 or more of the funding. Continued employment in this position is contingent upon the availability of funding for this position. Your employment may end upon the cancellation or discontinuation of the project, program, or funding.
