We can recruit patients from many patient populations — Washington University Medical Center, private practices, family planning facilities and other sites —covering a wide range of sociodemographic levels. We also offer research assistants, nurse coordinators, data managers, epidemiologists, a statistician, project coordinators and support staff.
