Research Assistant, IHE

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? Actually the posting includes "About Us", "The Opportunity", "What You'll Do", "What You Bring", "Comprehensive Benefits Package", "Why Join IHE?" etc. We need to use

for section headings: e.g., About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. But we should only include sections when posting has real specific content. We need to map content to those headings. We have no explicit Pay or Schedule details except Work Arrangement: hybrid position requiring 2 days per week in Boston office, flexibility remote remainder. That's schedule info. So we can include a Schedule section with that detail. Benefits: Comprehensive Benefits Package described. Qualifications: Required qualifications and Preferred qualifications. Skills: maybe combine required qualifications? But we can have Skills section for things like strong attention to detail, communication, etc. However we might just put them under Qualifications. Responsibilities: "What You'll Do" list. About the role: maybe "About Us" or "The Opportunity". The instruction: Use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we should create headings matching those exact strings? Probably yes: use those exact headings when content exists. So we need sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay?, Schedule. Pay not present, so omit. Schedule present. We need to avoid repeating job title as heading. Not needed. We need to preserve all substantive information, not invent. We need to use

• for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

  for prose. We need to remove boilerplate: EEO, etc. Also remove "Job Posted by ApplicantPro". Also remove duplicated lines. We need to keep all substantive info: About Us description, The Opportunity description, What You'll Do tasks, What You Bring qualifications, Benefits, Why Join IHE? maybe could be part of About the role? But we have headings limited; we could incorporate Why Join IHE into About the role or maybe as a separate section? Not in list. Better to incorporate into About the role as prose. We need to ensure we don't create sections with filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. Let's extract content. About Us paragraph: The Institute for Health Equity Research, Evaluation and Policy (the Institute) was founded by the Massachusetts League of Community Health Centers (Mass League) to achieve health equity state-wide using emancipatory principles to support community health center research and practice. The goal is to foster research that elucidates the causes of health inequities, evaluates what works to address them, uses the work to affect public policies and clinical practices, all while creating career advancement opportunities for community health center staff. The Mass League was founded in 1972 as one of the country's first state Primary Care Associations (PCAs). Established under the same federal authorizing legislation as the health center program (Section 330 of the Public Health Service Act), PCAs are organized around a set of core functions and competencies that provide a framework for support and assistance to health centers and the communities they serve. The League is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization registered as a public charity with the Commonwealth's Secretary of State. It maintains a professional staff at its headquarters in Boston and its training center in Worcester. The Opportunity: The role of the Research Assistant is to conduct activities to assess the landscape of community health centers, and to facilitate and coordinate research, evaluation, and policy and dissemination efforts that advance the mission of community health centers in Massachusetts. The Research Assistant will join a research and evaluation team working on projects directly related to the IHE mission under the supervision and mentorship of the Senior Qualitative Research Scientist and a quantitative scientist. The primary tasks of the Research Assistant will be to conduct mentored research and project coordination. The Research Assistant will aid in all phases, such as planning, development, implementation, evaluation, writing and dissemination of results internally and externally including publications. The Research Assistant will have some knowledge, and expect to grow, in mission- and research-related activities such as, Research (e.g., literature reviews, researching data sources, conducting interviews and focus groups, cleaning and processing qualitative and quantitative data, coding and carrying out analyses, and creating reports or dashboards)Program evaluation (e.g., creating logic models, supporting process and impact evaluations)Project coordination (e.g., notetaking during meetings, tracking project progress and deadlines)Data preparation and writing (e.g., project reports, publications, and blogs) The Research Assistant will be responsible for supporting community health center-led projects across a range of topics. Examples of ongoing projects include perinatal population health, projects on chronic diseases from a public health and equity perspective, and workforce development and retention. Tasks include literature reviews and summaries, IRB protocol and study document creation and maintenance, project coordination, manuscript preparation and dissemination, and written and oral communication with study partners. The Research Assistant may have opportunities to present findings at conferences and other meetings. The successful candidate should be self-motivated and have strong problem-solving skills. Additionally, this position offers strong opportunities for mentorship in community health center-led research with a health equity lens. Reports To: IHE Senior Qualitative Research Scientist Work Arrangement: This is a hybrid position requiring 2 days per week in our Boston office, with flexibility to work remotely for the remainder of the week. What You'll Do: list of duties. What You Bring: Required qualifications and Preferred qualifications. Education/Experience: Bachelor's degree etc. Comprehensive Benefits Package: description. Why Join IHE?: bullet points. We need to map to headings. About the role: could combine About Us and The Opportunity? Probably About the role includes description of role and organization. We'll put About the role prose summarizing both About Us and The Opportunity (but not duplicate). We'll keep substantive info. Responsibilities: What You'll Do list. Requirements: maybe Required qualifications? But we have Requirements and Qualifications separate. Could treat Requirements as required qualifications, Qualifications as preferred? Or we could combine. The instruction list includes Requirements and Qualifications as separate headings. We'll assign Required qualifications to Requirements, and Preferred qualifications plus Education/Experience to Qualifications? But Education/Experience is also a qualification. Might be better to put Required qualifications under Requirements, and Preferred qualifications plus Education/Experience under Qualifications. Skills: maybe soft skills like communication, teamwork, detail-oriented. Could extract from Required qualifications: Strong attention to detail and organizational skills, Able to communicate and work well with diverse team members, staff and key stakeholders, Commitment to work in multi-cultural environment and participate in Diversity, Inclusion and Belonging activities. Those could be Skills. Benefits: Comprehensive Benefits Package. Schedule: Work Arrangement. Pay: not present, omit. We must not create empty sections. Now produce HTML. Structure:
