We are looking for a highly motivated candidate with a background in nursing or health sciences:
- Master of Science in Nursing or related field.
- Strong interest in family-focused health care and implementation science methodology.
- Some prior research experience in clinical settings (knowledge of intervention or implementation research is an asset).
- Willingness to work closely with patients, families, clinicians, and researchers across Switzerland.
