Subject: Posting volunteer opportunity for Hunter PreHealth/Post-bacc
students in Bellevue Hospital's Pediatric Clinic

 

Hi there - 

I was told that you are the advisor at Hunter who is in charge of the
pre-health listserve, and was hoping you might help me post an opportunity
for your students.

 

I am a pediatrician at the NYU School of Medicine who is working on research
on parent-health provider communication, and the impact of parent literacy
on child health, including medication errors and preventive health issues.
I am looking for volunteers interested in working with me on a clinical
research project in Bellevue Hospital's outpatient pediatric clinic.

 

I would appreciate it if you could assist me in reaching out to the
pre-health students at Hunter - I have included the listing below as well as
attached a word document version.  Thank you so much!

 

 

 

Sincerely,

 

Shonna
