HPRC currently employs 34 faculty members across the Oklahoma City and Tulsa campuses.
All qualified applicants are encouraged to apply, but research in one or more of the following areas is preferred:
The mission of the TSET HPRC is to reduce the burden of disease in Oklahoma by addressing modifiable health risk factors such as tobacco use, sedentary lifestyle, poor diet, cancer screening, and risky alcohol and other substance use through research, novel intervention development, and dissemination of research findings. The HPRC is an integral component of the Cancer Prevention and Control Program of the NCI-Designated SCC and contains major resources that facilitate research including: 1) the Tobacco Treatment Research Program (TTRP), 2) the Mobile Health Shared Resource, 3) the Tobacco Regulatory Science Lab, and 4) the HPRC Training Program.
HPRC investigators have developed the InsightTM mHealth Platform which enables researchers to rapidly (i.e., within 1-4 weeks) create smartphone-based research studies that include ecological momentary assessments and sensor data (e.g., wearable, mobile carbon monoxide monitor) to identify environmental, cognitive, affective, physiological, and behavioral antecedents of health risk behaviors and deliver context-specific adaptive interventions in real-time. The mHealth resource is currently staffed by 6 computer scientists/engineers and 4 additional staff members. To date, the mHealth resource has supported >115 research studies including >60 studies funded by the NIH.
