Professor Stanley H. Weiss, MD is a tenured, full-time Professor of Medicine at the Rutgers New Jersey Medical School in Newark, New Jersey, USA. A brief bio for him is posted here<\/a>. (Dr. Weiss is also a professor of Biostatistics and Epidemiology at the Rutgers School of Public Health, and an Associate of the Rutgers Cancer Institute of NJ.)<\/p>\n

As of April 2021, Dr. Weiss and his team now have several open positions available. These positions are grant-funded, and will be open for immediate placement upon completion of approvals within Rutgers, and in accordance with Rutgers HR policies.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Post-doctoral fellowship<\/a>;<\/li>\n
  2. Research & Teaching Specialist V<\/a>;<\/li>\n
  3. Temporary part-time research assistants (multiple positions available, both for Rutgers students<\/a> and for others<\/a>);<\/li>\n
  4. Public Health Representative II<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    The research positions (A, B and C) are in support of a five-year R01 grant<\/a> from the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), funded through June 2025. The research supported by this grant is part of Dr. Weiss\u2019s larger epidemiological program, begun in the mid-1980s, studying long-term prospective cohorts of persons with a history of drug abuse. An overview of these cohort studies (written before we received the aforementioned R01 grant) is posted here<\/a>. We also have several newer initiatives involving drug users, many with policy implications. We are now in the third year of a five-year non-competitive renewal cycle (and have already been asked to apply for the next continuation year).<\/p>\n

    The Public Health Representative II<\/a> position is to coordinate activities of the\u00a0Essex-Passaic Wellness Coalition<\/a><\/u>, a bi-county chronic disease coalition, now in its 16th continuous year, and is funded by a grant (awarded annually) from the New Jersey Department of Health.<\/p>\n

    In anticipation of increasing levels of Covid-19 vaccination that will facilitate return to work, plus our need to work closely together and with our many partners, in-person work is anticipated (not virtual). (The temporary part-time research assistant positions might be virtual in special circumstances.)<\/p>\n

    We regret that there are no funds for relocation expenses.<\/p>\n

    Related in part to our rapid timeline for hiring, we regret that we cannot sponsor work visas.<\/p>\n
