Job Summary
The Brain Care Labs (BCL) in the Center for Genomic Medicine (CGM) and the Department of Neurology at Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) is seeking a motivated, enthusiastic candidate to join our research group. The BCL is the research arm of the Global Brain Care Coalition (GBCC), founded in 2023, and directed by Dr. Jonathan Rosand, J.P. Kistler Endowed Chair in Neurology at Massachusetts General Hospital. The GBCC is a global network dedicated to reducing the incidence of dementia, stroke, and depression through science-based prevention and community engagement. The Coalition unites more than 100 global partners — scientists, clinicians, public health leaders, and advocates — to make proactive brain care accessible to all.
While the BCL and the GBCC each have distinct missions and funding streams, they operate in close alignment: BCL advances the science of brain health through research, discovery, and validation, while GBCC drives the translation and implementation of that science in communities, digital platforms, and health systems around the world. Together, they form a continuous learning and implementation cycle — a global learning health system that translates discovery into impact and brings evidence back into research.
