We have an opening for a research volunteer in our laboratory to assist on our project looking at lung function in vapers. Students who have completed course work in lung physiology and who have experience in human studies will be given priority.
The research volunteer can expect to actively participate in recruiting study participants and in data analysis, and to attend weekly lab meetings. We ask that you commit to a minimum of 5 hours per week with a 3-quarter commitment.
