Description
With more than 13,000 employees representing 160 professions, the Geneva University Hospitals are a reference institution at both national and international levels. To learn more about our institution, take a few minutes to watch our 2025 retrospective by clicking here.
Attached to the Department of Medicine, the Infectious Diseases Department aims to combine clinical activity meeting the needs of a university hospital with academic research and teaching activities in collaboration with the Faculty of Medicine. It ensures the diagnosis and treatment of all patients suffering from an infectious disease, including HIV/AIDS patients, for whom all applicable measures to slow down or even stop the progression of their condition are implemented in coordination with interdisciplinary care.
You will participate in the national multicentre iGASWISS-2 project, dedicated to the study of invasive group A streptococcal infections (iGAS) in Switzerland. This project, conducted in collaboration with several university centres across the country, aims to deepen epidemiological, clinical, and microbiological knowledge of iGAS to improve prevention and management strategies.
Under the supervision of the principal investigators, you will contribute to the scientific and operational activities related to the conduct of the study.
You will collect and extract clinical data from electronic medical records, then verify their quality, consistency, and completeness.
You will participate in managing and updating the REDCap database and coordinate exchanges with participating centres to ensure follow-up of inclusions and resolve missing data.
You will take part in data validation and quality control procedures, as well as initial descriptive analyses in collaboration with the methodological team.
You will also contribute to writing scientific reports, abstracts for conferences, and manuscripts, and participate in research meetings.
Qualifications
You hold a federal medical diploma or an equivalent qualification recognised by the Medical Professions Commission (MEBEKO).
You demonstrate a strong interest in clinical research, epidemiology, and infectious diseases.
Previous experience in clinical data collection or analysis is an asset.
You show excellent organisational skills, methodological rigour, and the ability to work independently.
You are comfortable with computer tools and database management.
For non-French speakers, a C1 level in French, both spoken and written, is required. A good command of English is expected, and knowledge of one or more national languages (notably Italian or German) is a real advantage.
