We are seeking a detail-oriented and analytical Medical Research Associate specializing in Gastroenterology to join our team supporting a US-based healthcare practice. This role is ideal for candidates with a background in life sciences, biomedical sciences, or a related discipline who have a strong interest in medical research, clinical chart review, and healthcare documentation.

Assist in organizing patient histories, clinical findings, diagnostic information, and relevant medical documentation for provider review.
Identify missing information, inconsistencies, or documentation gaps and escalate them to the appropriate healthcare team member.
Search reputable medical databases, including PubMed and other peer-reviewed literature sources, to gather relevant clinical evidence.
Prepare research summaries, reference materials, and reports to support physicians and healthcare operations.
Maintain accurate records and follow established workflows, documentation standards, and quality-control procedures.
Handle protected health information (PHI) securely and follow applicable HIPAA requirements, privacy policies, and organizational procedures.
Collaborate with physicians and administrative team members to complete assigned research and documentation tasks within deadlines.
Stay updated on relevant gastroenterology literature, clinical terminology, and documentation practices.
