This 3-year project is funded by The Duke Endowment and will involve collaborative work with partners in the local community (e.g., The Center for Child and Family Health in Durham) and other academic institutions (University of California, San Francisco; Center on the Developing Child at Harvard University). The Assistant Clinical Research Coordinator assists with the execution of study protocols, including screening and recruiting study participants, conducting study visits, and collecting, entering, and reviewing study data.Education and Experience:
