The department in which I work in is the Channing Laboratory. We don’t have all the equipment that other labs have however, we do have computers, the work we do in the office is data entry. the data entry consisted of cross checking as well as finding errors on questionnaires and help with the master computer to a able to have the correct templates. We also do sorting of labels! My co-worker Roger and I are also working with the Access and the GUTS study. We learned how to talk to people over the phone and what we have to say if they want to be part of the study or if they would rather not. I was able to work on a questionnaire and to revise it so that it would be better and clear when being given to participants in the study. The data that we collect along with the data that we enter in the computer is being compiled and analyzed. The studies that we are assisting with are nation wide and have been going on for a large period of time.
