Position Summary:

The Research Associate will support a multidisciplinary research project evaluating the health impacts of congestion pricing in New York City (NYC). Working closely with Principal Investigators and other collaborators in the Departments of Pediatrics and Population Health, the Research Associate will contribute to quantitative analysis, manuscript development, literature reviews, regulatory coordination, and research administration. This is a collaborative role for an individual with training in public health, epidemiology, biostatistics, or a related field who is interested in policy evaluation, population health, and environmental epidemiology. The ideal candidate will be organized, detail-oriented, and comfortable supporting multiple components of a research project, including data-related, analytic, and regulatory tasks.

Job Responsibilities:

New York City is the first jurisdiction in the United States to implement a cordon-based congestion pricing policy, with the goals of alleviating traffic and increasing revenue to improve NYC’s transit system. While evidence from other major cities with similar policies, such as London and Stockholm, suggests that these policies are associated with reductions in congestion and improvements in air quality, research on the health impacts of road pricing policies remains limited. There is particularly little empirical evidence on the magnitude and direction of such policies’ effects on health disparity.
This project uses a quasi-experimental approach to evaluate the health impacts of the NYC congestion pricing policy by examining trends in air quality and rates of health outcomes in the congestion zone and carefully selected control areas.
 
Key Responsibilities: 
 
Research and Analytic Support: 
• Support quantitative analyses related to the evaluation of the air quality and health impacts of congestion pricing in NYC.
• Assist with variable construction, descriptive analyses, and preparation of analytic datasets.
• Use R to support statistical analyses and generation of tables, figures, and summary outputs.
• Contribute to literature reviews and synthesis of relevant scientific evidence.
• Assist with preparation of abstracts, reports, presentations, and manuscript materials.
• Support documentation of analytic processes and project materials.
 
Regulatory and Administrative Support: 
• Assist with preparation and tracking of IRB submissions, modifications, renewals, and related study documentation.
• Support coordination of data use agreements, data access requests, and other research compliance documentation.
• Maintain study records, project files, and regulatory documents in an organized manner.
• Help ensure adherence to institutional and data security requirements related to research data access and use.
• Support project coordination across investigators, collaborators, and institutional offices as needed.
 
Collaboration and Project Support: 
• Work closely with PIs and research team members in Pediatrics and Population Health.
• Participate in team meetings and support follow-up on project tasks and timelines.
• Provide flexible support across analytic, writing, and regulatory activities as project needs evolve.
 

Minimum Qualifications:

To qualify you must have a B.S. or B.A. in Biomedical or Physical Sciences. A minimum commitment of two years is required and placement in position may not exceed three years.

Preferred Qualifications:

Masters degree in Public Health, Epidemiology, Biostatistics, Health Services Research, or a related field.
Experience supporting quantitative or population health research projects.
Familiarity with R for data management, analysis, and/or reporting.
Strong written and verbal communication skills.
Strong organizational skills and attention to detail.
Ability to manage multiple tasks and work collaboratively in a team-based research environment.
Familiarity with IRB processes and human subjects research documentation.
Experience supporting manuscript preparation, literature reviews, or scientific reporting.
Experience working with large administrative or population-level datasets.
 

Qualified candidates must be able to effectively communicate with all levels of the organization.
