The Director of Medical Education & Curriculum will serve as CoREs senior architect for

physician education, responsible for translating complex, evolving scientific knowledge in

infection-associated chronic illness (IACI) into rigorous, structured, CME-accredited curricula.

The Director will work closely with CoREs scientific leadership to ensure that emerging

research, clinical trial findings, and mechanistic insights are transformed into clear, evidence-

based, clinically actionable educational materials for physicians.

The ideal candidate is equally fluent in science and curriculum development: someone who

understands how clinicians learn, how CME accreditation works, and how to build longitudinal

education programs that meaningfully shift clinical practice.

Core Responsibilities

Curriculum Design & CME Content Development

Lead the design, development, and ongoing maintenance of CoREs physician education

curriculum, including provider manuals, CME courses, and supporting educational materials.

• Write, manage, edit, and add targeted content to the CoRE IACI Provider Manual,

making decisions on what content to include, and at what length.

• Define and map curriculum components to practice gaps, learning objectives,

competencies, and outcomes in alignment with adult learning principles and CME

standards.

• Write, edit, and translate biomedical research, mechanistic hypotheses, and clinical trial

findings into accurate, clinically relevant educational content for physician learners.

• Determine appropriate content scope, depth, and format across educational materials

and clinical audiences.

• Develop CME-ready materials (e.g., recorded lectures, case-based modules, clinical

reference tools) and convert content into ACCME-compliant CME activities.

• Collaborate with CME administrative partners to support documentation, compliance,

and accreditation requirements, with the goal of educating 7,000+ physicians a year.

Scientific Collaboration & Content Integrity

• Work in close collaboration with CoRE scientific leads (including Drs. David Putrino and

Amy Proal) to integrate emerging literature, internal clinical insights, and trial-derived

knowledge into curriculum.

• Manage structured internal scientific review processes to ensure accuracy, balance, and

credibility. Maintain version control and update cadence as the science evolves.

Educational Media & Learning Assets

• Collaborate with graphic designers and media producers to create visuals, documents,

diagrams, and short educational videos that support learning objectives and reinforce

scientific rigor.

Required Qualifications

• Advanced scientific or clinical degree (PhD, MD, DO, PharmD, DNP, or equivalent).
• 5-10+ years experience in medical education, CME curriculum development, or

physician education.

• Demonstrated expertise in CME instructional design and physician-focused education.
• Proven ability to translate complex biomedical science into structured educational

content.

• Working knowledge of ACCME standards and CME activity development.
• Exceptional scientific writing, editing, and curriculum-structuring skills.
• Experience collaborating with physician-scientists and clinical experts.

We recognize that no candidate meets every qualification listed. If you are interested in this position and believe

your experience, skills, and background align with the role, we encourage you to apply.

Preferred Qualifications

• Background in academic medicine, translational research, or complex chronic disease.
• Experience building longitudinal or multi-course CME programs.
• Familiarity with learning management systems (e.g., EthosCE, Canvas, Moodle).
• Experience developing case-based or competency-based medical education.
