How to Apply for CoRE Curriculum Director
at PolyBio Research Foundation
๐ข About PolyBio Research Foundation
PolyBio Research Foundation is unique for its specialized focus on infection-associated chronic illness (IACI) research, bridging the gap between scientific discovery and clinical practice. Working here offers the opportunity to directly impact physician education in an emerging field where research translation is critically needed to improve patient outcomes.
About This Role
As CoRE Curriculum Director, you'll lead the entire lifecycle of physician education materialsโfrom designing CME courses to translating complex biomedical research into clinically relevant content. This role is impactful because you'll shape how physicians understand and treat infection-associated chronic illnesses, directly influencing clinical practice through evidence-based education.
๐ก A Day in the Life
A typical day involves reviewing recent IACI research publications to identify educational gaps, collaborating with scientific teams to translate findings into curriculum modules, and working with CME partners to ensure new courses meet accreditation standards. You'll spend significant time writing and editing physician-focused content while managing the ongoing maintenance of existing educational materials.
