We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually the posting includes "About Acadia Pharmaceuticals" then "Seeking talent near: ..." then "As a Patient Educator, you’ll be at the heart..." then "Key Responsibilities:" then bullet list, then "Qualifications:" then bullet list, then "Competencies:" then bullet list, then "Physical Requirements:" then paragraph, then "In addition to a competitive base salary..." then "Salary Range $109,500—$136,900 USD" then "What we offer US-based Employees:" then list of benefits. We must not repeat job title as heading. Use

for section headings: e.g., About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide which sections to include based on content. We have: - About the role: we have description of role (the paragraph after "As a Patient Educator..."). Could be "About the role". Also there is "About Acadia Pharmaceuticals" but that's company description; maybe we can include as part of About the role? The instruction: use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Qualifications, Competencies (maybe Skills), Benefits, Pay. Physical Requirements maybe part of Requirements? Could be under Requirements. Travel etc maybe part of Requirements or Schedule? There's no explicit schedule but travel up to 75% etc. Could be Schedule section if present. The posting mentions travel requirements, overnight stays, etc. That could be considered Schedule. We'll include Schedule if we have specifics: travel up to 75% of the time, occasional after-hours work, must reside within territory, etc. That's schedule-related. So we can have Schedule section. We must not create sections with filler like "not specified". So only include sections where we have real content. We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all details from the posting, but we can format them into appropriate sections. We must remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. So we need to strip out the EEO statement, the California Applicants, etc. Also remove the "Notice to Search Firms..." etc. Also remove the "About Acadia Pharmaceuticals" maybe? That's not boilerplate but company description; we can keep as part of About the role? The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. So we should keep the company description as part of About the role or maybe a separate section like "About the company". But allowed headings list does not include About the company; but we could still use About the role heading and include company description there? Might be okay. However we need to preserve the company description; we can put it under About the role heading as a paragraph. We also need to preserve the location seeking talent near: list of cities. That's substantive; maybe include under About the role or under Requirements? Could be under Requirements (location). We'll include location in Requirements. We need to preserve the bullet points under Key Responsibilities, Qualifications, Competencies, Physical Requirements, Benefits, Pay. We need to format lists with
  • . We need to use

    for prose. We must not repeat the job title as a heading. So no

    Patient Educator

    . We must not put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings; none present. We must output ONLY the HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. Let's craft. Structure:

    About the role

    [company description + location seeking talent + role description]

    But we need to ensure we don't duplicate content. Let's extract: About Acadia Pharmaceuticals paragraph: "Acadia is committed to turning scientific promise into meaningful innovation that makes the difference for underserved neurological and rare disease communities around the world. Our commercial portfolio includes the first and only FDA-approved treatments for Parkinson’s disease psychosis and Rett syndrome. We are developing the next wave of therapeutic advancements with a robust and diverse pipeline that includes mid- to late-stage programs in Alzheimer’s disease psychosis and Lewy body dementia psychosis, along with earlier-stage programs that address other underserved patient needs. At Acadia, we’re here to be their difference." Then "Seeking talent near: New York, NY; Boston, MA; New Haven, CT; Burlington, VT; Portland, ME" Then role description: "As a Patient Educator, you’ll be at the heart of our mission to empower patients and caregivers navigating the challenges of Parkinson’s Disease Psychosis (PDP). In this vital role, you’ll deliver compassionate, clear, and actionable disease state education—helping individuals understand their condition and explore treatment options, including NUPLAZID®. You’ll serve as a trusted guide during early patient engagement, bridging the gap between diagnosis and ongoing support. By ensuring a smooth transition to ACADIA Connect and Patient Access Managers (PAMs), you’ll help patients access the resources they need for coverage, affordability, and long-term treatment adherence." We can combine these into a paragraph. Then Responsibilities: list items under Key Responsibilities. The bullet list includes multiple sentences; we need to preserve each bullet as
  • . The bullet list appears as a paragraph with sentences separated by periods but no explicit bullet markers. However the text: "Key Responsibilities: Patient Caregiver Support Deliver pre-prescription (pre-NBRx) disease state education to patients and caregivers via small group meetings and presentations to advocacy groups, community-based organizations, and professional societies.Provide information regarding product efficacy, safety, and access support available through ACADIA Connect to patients and/or caregivers who have opted in through various programs. Offer approved educational resources helping patients and caregivers understand their disease and empower them to talk to their doctor about PDP.Distribute approved educational materials to enhance patient and caregiver awareness of PDP and potential treatment with NUPLAZID®.Build trusting relationships to ensure patients and caregivers feel supported throughout their journey. Access & Coverage Coordination Collaborate with Patient Access Managers (PAMs) to address patient or caregiver questions related to coverage, reimbursement, and affordability.Facilitate the referral and transition process for patients into ACADIA Connect for comprehensive access assistance. Cross-Functional Collaboration Partner primarily with Neurology Sales Specialists and Long-Term Care Sales Specialists to ensure community-based healthcare providers are aware of Patient Educator resource provided by ACADIA.Respond to inquiries generated through patient/caregivers, key customers, community organizations, and/or advocacy events.Collaborate with community-based organizations, advocacy organizations, and professional societies to support patient and caregiver education programs. Education and Program Enhancement Provide feedback and insights to the marketing team to improve patient engagement and educational initiatives." We need to split into logical bullet points. The original likely had bullet points but got flattened. We need to preserve ALL substantive information; we can infer bullet points by splitting at each capitalized section start? But we must not invent detail. However we can keep as a single paragraph under Responsibilities? The instruction says use
    • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. If the original had a list, we should represent as list. Since we don't have explicit bullet markers, we could still treat each sentence as a list item? Might be over-splitting. But we need to follow instruction: if there is a list, we must use
      • . The posting says "Key Responsibilities:" then a block of text that seems to be a list but missing bullet characters. Safer to treat each distinct responsibility as a list item. We can split by the capitalized headings: "Patient Caregiver Support", "Access & Coverage Coordination", "Cross-Functional Collaboration", "Education and Program Enhancement". Under each there are multiple sentences. Could make each heading as a list item with sub-detail? But we cannot invent structure. Perhaps better to keep as a single

        under Responsibilities, but that violates instruction to use

        • for any list. However if we treat it as not a list (just a paragraph), we might be okay. But the instruction says "Use
          • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits". If we don't have clear list, we can use

            . I'd lean to use

            for Responsibilities to avoid inventing list items. But we risk not following instruction if they expect list. However the original had bullet points; we can approximate by splitting at each period that starts a new capitalized word after a period? That's risky. Let's examine the text: After "Key Responsibilities:" there is no line break. The sentences: "Patient Caregiver Support Deliver pre-prescription (pre-NBRx) disease state education to patients and caregivers via small group meetings and presentations to advocacy groups, community-based organizations, and professional societies.Provide information regarding product efficacy, safety, and access support available through ACADIA Connect to patients and/or caregivers who have opted in through various programs. Offer approved educational resources helping patients and caregivers understand their disease and empower them to talk to their doctor about PDP.Distribute approved educational materials to enhance patient and caregiver awareness of PDP and potential treatment with NUPLAZID®.Build trusting relationships to ensure patients and caregivers feel supported throughout their journey." That's a bunch of sentences without spaces after periods. Then "Access & Coverage Coordination Collaborate with Patient Access Managers (PAMs) to address patient or caregiver questions related to coverage, reimbursement, and affordability.Facilitate the referral and transition process for patients into ACADIA Connect for comprehensive access assistance." Then "Cross-Functional Collaboration Partner primarily with Neurology Sales Specialists and Long-Term Care Sales Specialists to ensure community-based healthcare providers are aware of Patient Educator resource provided by ACADIA.Respond to inquiries generated through patient/caregivers, key customers, community organizations, and/or advocacy events.Collaborate with community-based organizations, advocacy organizations, and professional societies to support patient and caregiver education programs." Then "Education and Program Enhancement Provide feedback and insights to the marketing team to improve patient engagement and educational initiatives." Thus we can treat each heading as a list item, with the subsequent sentences as description within that item. That seems reasonable and not inventing beyond what's there. We'll produce

            • Patient Caregiver Support: ...
            • etc. But adding may be considered adding markup not in original; but it's okay to emphasize? Might be considered adding detail? Safer to just put the heading as plain text inside the li. Thus each li will contain the heading and the following sentences until next heading. We'll need to reinsert spaces after periods for readability. Similarly for Qualifications: after "Qualifications:" we have a block: "Bachelor’s degree in nursing, social work, psychology, or a related healthcare field; advanced degree preferred.Minimum of 3–5 years of experience in pharma with preferred candidates having experience in patient education, patient navigation, advocacy, or pharmaceutical patient support services.Knowledge of neurology, psychiatry, or movement disorders preferred, experience with Parkinson’s Disease or PDP strongly desired.Demonstrated ability to build empathetic and supportive relationships with patients and caregivers.Excellent communication, interpersonal, and active listening skills.Experience collaborating across marketing, patient support services, advocacy, and field-based teams.Familiarity with compliance standards for patient-facing pharmaceutical roles.Ability to meet travel requirements, including driving and overnight stays; air travel as needed." We can split by each sentence (they are separated by periods but missing spaces). We'll create list items for each sentence. Competencies: after "Competencies:" we have: "Patient-Centered Focus – Dedicated to improving patient and caregiver experiences.Empathy & Emotional Intelligence – Skilled at providing compassionate support.Collaboration & Teamwork – Works effectively across functions and with external partners.Strong Communication – Clear and effective educator with patients,
