How to Apply for CoRE Curriculum Director

at PolyBio Research Foundation

๐Ÿข 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 materialsโ€”from 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.

๐Ÿ’ก 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.

๐ŸŽฏ Who PolyBio Research Foundation Is Looking For

  • Holds an advanced clinical/scientific degree (PhD, MD, DO, PharmD, DNP) with 5-10+ years specifically in medical education or CME curriculum development
  • Has demonstrated experience translating complex biomedical research (particularly in infectious diseases or chronic illness) into structured educational content for physicians
  • Possesses working knowledge of ACCME standards and practical experience developing CME-ready materials from scientific content
  • Can show proven ability to collaborate with CME administrative partners on compliance and accreditation requirements

๐Ÿ“ Tips for Applying to PolyBio Research Foundation

1

Highlight specific experience translating biomedical research into CME coursesโ€”quantify how many courses you've developed and for what medical specialties

2

Demonstrate knowledge of IACI (infection-associated chronic illness) by referencing PolyBio's research focus areas in your materials

3

Show examples of how you've maintained ACCME compliance in previous curriculum development roles

4

Emphasize remote collaboration experience since this is a fully remote position requiring coordination with CME partners

5

Include a portfolio sample showing how you've converted clinical trial findings into physician education materials

โœ‰๏ธ What to Emphasize in Your Cover Letter

['Your specific experience with ACCME-compliant CME activity development and maintenance', 'Examples of translating complex biomedical research into physician-focused educational content', "Understanding of PolyBio's mission regarding infection-associated chronic illness research translation", 'How your background aligns with developing curriculum for physicians treating chronic conditions']
