  • Joint Replacement Research Associate Position

    The Anderson Orthopaedic Research Institute (AORI) is seeking an individual
    to assist with all phases of its on-going research related to hip and knee
    joint replacements. The successful candidate will work closely with
    experienced orthopaedic surgeons to design and implement research studies.
    Job responsibilities will include developing research protocols, obtaining
    Institutional Review Board (IRB) approval, collecting data, performing
    statistical analyses and writing manuscripts. Candidates must have a
    bachelor's or graduate degree in engineering or a science-related field.
    Computer proficiency is essential. This position is full-time with
    benefits. Salary will be based on qualifications and experience. While
    relevant experience is desirable, AORI regards itself as a training
    institute and can provide on-the-job training for capable individuals who
    are ambitious and self-motivated. This position may be ideal for someone
    who is seeking clinical experience or considering a career related to
    orthopaedics. Interested candidates should e-mail their CV and a cover
    letter to research@aori.org.

    Established in 1972, AORI (www.aori.org) is a non-profit research foundation
    renown for its clinically-oriented research related to hip and knee
    replacements. AORI conducts both prospective and retrospective studies to
    better understand the factors that influence outcome after joint
    replacement. The Institute maintains a clinical database of over 14,000
    joint replacement procedures. Current research topics include
    three-dimensional imaging of joint replacement patients using computed
    tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance (MR) imaging; understanding the
    factors associated with bone resorption (osteolysis) around artificial
    implants; and evaluating bone graft substitutes for the treatment of
    osteolysis. AORI's facilities are located 10 miles outside Washington, DC,
    in Alexandria, VA. We seek to share our research findings with the medical
    community through peer-reviewed publications and scientific meetings.
    Opportunities for co-authorship are available to AORI staff members for work
    stemming from their research.
