Subject: Looking for Research Volunteers- MSKCC
Dear Ms. Wood-Hill,
I am looking for volunteers in the Department Of Psychiatry at Memorial
Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center. I was wondering if you could pass this e-mail
on to post-bacc or pre-med students who might be interested? My contact
information is below.
Many thanks,
Tatiana

The Department of Psychiatry & Behavioral Sciences offers an opportunity to
gain research experience in the psychological and behavioral issues in
cancer. Individuals will gain valuable clinical experience in patient
interviewing, survey data collection, data entry, and conducting literature
reviews relevant to cancer prevention and control topics. As well, our
department is very active in all aspects of research. Research affiliates
work with research staff and Principal Investigators alike on grants from
concept to funding, as well as assist with ongoing research projects.
We encourage students to become involved in this great opportunity as much
as they can. Many of our interns and staff choose masters theses and
doctoral dissertations in related areas and we gladly provide mentoring for
completion of these and other academic requirements. Moreover, this
placement provides an excellent opportunity for research career development
in a healthcare setting, no matter what one's ultimate goal is. Faculty
interests include cancer screening, cancer survivorship, psychotherapy
process and outcome research, neurocognitive research, palliative care,
physician-patient communication, quality of life, risk perception and cancer
communication, pain and substance dependence, sleep research, tobacco
control and other health behavior change interventions, symptom management,
and disparities in cancer care. Many research projects target urban,
medically underserved populations.
Good time management, organizational and communication skills are essential.
Computer skills are desirable including word processing, PowerPoint and
library search engine tools. The benefits are vast, and reach beyond
advancing your career or grad school application. Volunteers will become
valuable members of a research team and have the opportunity to gain
real-life experience, attend Grand Rounds and even use data for the theses
and publications if desired.
Please e-mail your letter of interest and your Curriculum Vita to:
