    Job Summary

    The Red Fish Digital Innovation Project aims to design and implement exciting leading-edge virtual and digital care innovations to enhance the quality of care for clients experiencing serious and complex mental health and substance use challenges in all BC Mental Health and Substance Use Services (BCMHSUS) clinical programs. Under the Direction of the BCMHSUS Project Director, the Principal Investigator, and the Project Coordinator, the Research Assistant (RA2) will be responsible for performing research work primarily related to the pilot.

    • Drug Craving Biofeedback Pilot (DIP – DCB). This component will identify neural correlates of cue-induced craving using EEG, a computerized probabilistic picture card task, and subjective reporting of craving by individuals seeking treatment for complex concurrent disorders.

    We are interested in recruiting an RA2 to focus on the qualitative part of the project. Position will be hourly part-time for a total of 100 hours.
