Understand analytical needs of a variety of therapeutic area researchers and translate them through queries on clinical databases, EHR datasets

Support and develop phenotyping approaches through collaboration with Genetic and IT teams. This will include strategizing underlying database schema, defining pipelines for data streams and help define dashboards and tooling for creating phenotype assets

Conduct data analysis, including mining and curating of phenotypic datasets with primary responsibility in developing and identifying complex clinical phenotypes and cohorts of interest for efficient data mining and association analysis in both phenotype first and genotype first queries

Relevant to the role, the team's responsibilities encompass a broad range of tasks, including the acquisition, standardization, processing, and management of clinical data from diverse sources such as electronic health records, surveys, and health registries.

Provide leadership and business acumen to influence RGC data users around common data management goals, vision, and values, including the adoption and expansion of a common data model
