NIH, the department is seeking a physician to actively participate in these
new clinical trial research activities.

training in clinical trial research and training in a primary care
specialty. Candidates with interest in current emphasis areas of the

Epidemiology program and to supervise Master's students. Opportunities for
primary care clinical practice are available.
