Clinical Research Community Outreach Intern
Interested in getting exposure to clinical research and community outreach? Work with Wesal Abualkhair, MD, MS, MS to support community outreach education events within the community, at churches, health fairs, etc. Your role would help build out more community connections to build this network. In addition, you would help support coordinator training, including supporting 1-2 trainings per semester, supporting the full day event, as well as helping to recruit other volunteers. This effort has been in development for 2 years, but an intern can help create more structures to keep the efforts. Your work would be roughly 65% community outreach, and 35% supporting training events. Due to the outreach nature of the role, this internship would be good to have your own transportation. Contact Wesal Abualkhair <wabualkh@tulane.edu> to inquire about the internship. Also be sure to apply to the Public Service Internship program if you’d like to receive Public Service credit for this experience. Dr. Abualkhair is looking for students who can stay for 2 to 3 semesters.
