Patient-Centered Outcomes Research (PCOR) Summer Intern

at  Roche

Roche fosters diversity, equity and inclusion, representing the communities we serve. When dealing with healthcare on a global scale, diversity is an essential ingredient to success. We believe that inclusion is key to understanding people’s varied healthcare needs. Together, we embrace individuality and share a passion for exceptional care. Join Roche, where every voice matters.
The Position
The PCOR team supports development and commercialization of molecules at Roche by implementing strategies to measure how patients feel and/or function during the course of treatment. Through the collection of clinical outcomes assessments (COAs) such as patient reported outcomes (PROs), clinician-reported outcome (ClinRO), observer-reported outcome (ObsRO), and performance outcome (PerfO) measures, we work to capture the patient experience to better understand patients’ perspective of treatment, preference, or disease burden. The patient viewpoint is increasingly important in drug approval and reimbursement decisions as health authorities, payers, patients, caregivers and healthcare providers seek additional evidence of treatment benefit.

ABOUT THE POSITION:

We are seeking a dedicated and enthusiastic graduate student to join the PCOR team for a 3-month summer internship assignment in the Welwyn Garden City office. Under the supervision of your PCOR Manager you will support research efforts to help bring new medicines to patients.
The PCOR team is looking for someone able to apply research skills in an internship that will involve creative thinking, problem-solving, and time management skills. This is an opportunity to “own it” and bring your experiences to Roche to help us further patient-centered outcomes research. You will be part of a dynamic team paving the way in patient research.

ESSENTIAL REQUIREMENTS:

Applicants must currently be on a Master’s/PhD program within the UK in the areas of Life Sciences, Psychology (or related subject) and should be available for an online interview in January 2025.
This is an in-person internship so the successful candidate should be able to work from the Welwyn Garden City Office.
