Job Description

Description

Opportunity

UT Southwestern invites applications for the Associate Director, Research, of the Clinical Informatics Center (CIC). This role offers an unparalleled opportunity to develop and lead a research program that operates at the intersection of clinical care, data science, and health system implementation.

The CIC is embedded within one of the nation's top academic medical centers and tightly linked to operational informatics teams, giving investigators the ability to design, implement, and evaluate informatics interventions directly in clinical workflows.

Distinct Advantages

  • System-wide reach: Access data and implementation partners across four major health systems - UT Southwestern, Parkland Health, Children's Medical Center, and Texas Health Resources - covering millions of patient encounters annually.
  • Applied informatics integration: The CIC is jointly funded by the academic and health service arms of the University and offers unparalleled access to move projects from analysis to clinical deployment.
  • Collaborative ecosystem: Be an integral part of the CTSA-supported informatics core, work closely with clinical research and research development programs, and build collaborations with the O'Donnell School of Public Health.
  • Institutional strength: UT Southwestern combines a robust informatics infrastructure (Epic, OMOP, data warehouses, registry tools) with deep scholarship in implementation science, learning health systems, and data-driven quality improvement.
  • Training: A Clinical Informatics Fellowship and Master's of Science in Health Informatics with ambition to build a PhD program.

Qualifications

Your Role

As Associate Director with responsibility over research, you will:

  • Co-lead strategic direction for applied informatics research and faculty recruitment.
  • Develop and sustain your own research portfolio leveraging real-world clinical data, informatics methods, and system partnerships.
  • Create collaborative informatics research programs for residents, fellows, clinicians, and researchers who seek to apply research methodologies to translate data into improved care.
  • Foster collaborations across departments and disciplines to expand the reach of informatics innovation across the continuum of care-from hospital to home.

Application Instructions

Candidate Profile

We seek an established or emerging PhD informatics investigator who:

  • Has demonstrated experience and research funding in clinical informatics, implementation, or learning health systems research.
  • Thrives in collaborative, data-rich, health system-embedded environments.
  • Is ready to build a research enterprise with direct clinical impact.

Why UT Southwestern?

The CIC builds on a strong foundation of informatics excellence, supported by CTSA resources and partnerships across Dallas. Investigators benefit from a unique alignment between research, operations, and education, enabling rapid translation of insights to practice.
