Join a team of researchers and clinicians who have been awarded a $3 million dollar grant from the National Institute of Health to develop an understanding of the critical impact of the breast milk microbiome and inflammation on breastfeeding success and infant health. We are looking for individuals with a strong interest or experience in lactation or healthcare for a flexible per diem position (5-10 hrs/week). The clinical research assistant will be expected to drive to women’s homes at several time points following the birth to obtain information from the mothers on their breastfeeding journey and to transport specimens back to the laboratory.
