Developed by The Burgermaster Lab, Nutri is a clinical decision support tool that aids primary care providers in setting data-driven, personalized, diet goals with their patients. Our team is piloting the software at a chronic disease management clinic that serves uninsured patients in Central Texas. We need students to assist in collecting data on-site and conducting 24-hr diet recalls for participants in the clinic waiting room. This is a great opportunity for pre-health or public health students to get experience in a clinical environment while also enabling high-quality diet education/management alongside medical care.
Selected individuals will be added to the UT IRB and receive training on ASA24 dietary recall protocol before beginning their work on the project.
Responsibilities:
- Assist participants with surveys and ASA24 dietary recalls while in the clinic waiting room.
- Contribute to study regulatory documents, and enter all required study data on an ongoing basis.
- Other duties as assigned.
Qualifications / Requirements:
- Bilingual in English and Spanish
- Good communication skills
- Interest in chronic disease management, health equity, nutrition
- Available to be onsite during clinic, Monday nights 5 PM – 8:30 PM (1-2 shifts per month)
