Our take on this role

About this role

• PTs: Your experience collecting clinical outcomes and checking documentation accuracy may help with monitoring study data collection and resolving queries.
• OTs and SLPs: Teaching standardized assessment procedures and checking understanding could help you provide protocol and study-specific training to research-site staff.
• Social workers: If you've identified participation barriers and coordinated engagement, that experience could help you support patient recruitment and retention at research sites.
