Advancement Coordinator, Center For Integration Science In Global Health Equity

Site: The Brigham and Women's Hospital, Inc.

At Mass General Brigham, we know it takes a surprising range of talented professionals to advance our mission—from doctors, nurses, business people and tech experts, to dedicated researchers and systems analysts. As a not-for-profit organization, Mass General Brigham is committed to supporting patient care, research, teaching, and service to the community. We place great value on being a diverse, equitable and inclusive organization as we aim to reflect the diversity of the patients we serve.

At Mass General Brigham, we believe a diverse set of backgrounds and lived experiences makes us stronger by challenging our assumptions with new perspectives that can drive revolutionary discoveries in medical innovations in research and patient care. Therefore, we invite and welcome applicants from traditionally underrepresented groups in healthcare — people of color, people with disabilities, LGBTQ community, and/or gender expansive, first and second-generation immigrants, veterans, and people from different socioeconomic backgrounds – to apply.

Job Summary

Directed by Dr. Gene Bukhman, the Center for Integration Science (CIS) in Global Health Equity develops, implements, and evaluates integrated care delivery models to address neglected health issues in highly constrained health systems. The most prominent of those models is PEN-Plus (the Package of Essential Noncommunicable Disease Interventions – Plus). PEN-Plus is a proven integrated healthcare delivery strategy for delivering complex care to people living with such conditions as type 1 diabetes, sickle cell disease, and rheumatic and congenital heart disease in rural sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia.




The CIS is part of the Harvard-affiliated Brigham and Women’s Hospital (BWH) and works closely with the Department of Global Health and Social Medicine at Harvard Medical School. The CIS is also the World Health Organization’s Collaborating Center for Integration Science and Service Delivery. It further serves as one of two co-secretariats for the 22-country NCDI Poverty Network, as well as its strategic initiative, the global PEN-Plus Partnership.




To accomplish its ambitious mission, the CIS provides technical, policy, advocacy, and financing support for national NCDI Poverty Commissions in Network countries as they progress through a four-phase theory of change. This theory of change starts with situation analysis and ultimately leads to the implementation of PEN-Plus at a national scale
