This position involves providing genetic counseling for individuals seen in the Indiana University Health Cancer Program. This newly established program provides support and management to those at high risk for developing cancer, due to identification of an underlying germline predisposition, to take a comprehensive approach to their long term management. The genetic counselor in this role will educate individuals and their families regarding the outcome of germline genetic testing, including the natural history of the condition and significance for at-risk family members. This role therefore will include, but is not limited to, obtaining personal and family medical history information, requesting and reviewing relevant medical records, and communicating genetic risk factors and clinical implications. Since many of these patients will receive long term management support through this clinic, the genetic counselor will be involved in updating the family history over time, providing continuity of care as pediatric patients transition to this adult service, and updating families on variants which have been identified and may be reclassified. You may teach or oversee genetic counseling students as well as other learners, educate other health professionals, and connect with community organizations that serve this unique patient population. In addition, there will be opportunities to be involved in research, potentially with clinical trial participants. While previous experience working in cancer genetic counseling is preferred we would consider new graduates with unique skillsets and training.
