Dayton, Ohio - Wright State University and Premier Health seek a strategic and entrepreneurial research executive to serve as the inaugural Senior Associate Dean for Research Affairs (SADRA/VP) for the Wright State University Boonshoft School of Medicine (BSOM) and Vice President of Research for Premier Health. This is a unique opportunity to create a unified, enterprise-wide infrastructure and lead research strategy across a recently integrated academic health system model.
Reporting directly to the Dean of the BSOM and Chief Academic Officer of Premier Health, Dr. Raj Mitra, the SADRA/VP will have strong support across both institutions to build capacity from bench to bedside to community-engaged research, and to significantly grow clinical trials, population health, and outcomes research.

This endeavor has led to the establishment of an affiliation agreement between the institutions, enabling them to prioritize collaboration on shared objectives and emerging initiatives. Together, Premier Health and Wright State University will advance academic medicine, improve community health, bolster workforce and economic development, and become the destination for future health professionals through offering unparalleled academic and experiential learning environments.
As one of the largest comprehensive health systems in the region, Premier Health has five acute-care hospitals, an extensive network of physicians, numerous affiliate organizations, and more than 190 locations across eight counties. Wright State University is a national public university with more than 11,000 students. Offering 315 academic programs, the university is made up of six colleges, a medical school, and a branch campus in Celina, Ohio.
The ideal candidate will have a demonstrated history of cross-disciplinary research program building, collaboration, and an established track record of innovation and strategic thinking in navigating the evolving research funding landscape. Proven experience in leading clinical trials and/or translational research is required, with the ability to build a vision for the full spectrum of research across an academic health system, including population and outcomes research. An M.D., D.O., Ph.D., or equivalent and experience securing extramural funding is required, along with strong collaboration, communication, and relationship‑building skills.
