• Assistant Research Practitioner

  • Oct 2021 - Present

  I work with the newly developed Agile Research Team under the Clinical Research Network as part of the National Institute of Health Research. My role as an assistant research practitioner allows me to work on new and existing studies to obtain consent, promote and market research studies in order to encourage recruitment and make people aware of new research studies. Current studies I am working on include that of primary care of Venus leg ulcers, a personalised app called Brain in Hand which allows those who live with Autism have a better way of communicating and encouraging their day to day activities, Active Brains which promotes the cognitive brain function of older people and allows them to maintain their brain activity. In Cornwall, Primary Care research is at its peak and I have developed a substantial amount of connections and interest from many primary care practices and obtained various studies for the Agile team.
