Internship/Graduate Research Assistantship
- I work as a graduate research assistant on a randomized controlled trial (RCT), titled mHealth Intervention (iCAN) to Connect and Empower People Experiencing Homelessness to Improve Health Outcomes and Meet Social Needs. This RCT focuses on understanding the impact of a mobile health intervention designed to help homeless individuals with care coordination on health and social need outcomes.
