Call for Translators in TB Study
Message from Natasha Hochberg, Assistant Professor of Epidemiology and Co-director of the Travel Clinic at BMC:
We are in the process of starting a research study to evaluate the effect of parasites on latent TB infection in foreign-born refugees seen at Boston Medical Center. As part of the study, we need to translate the IRB consent forms into Somali, Arabic, Farsi, Haitian Creole, or Burmese. We are looking for students who are native speakers or fluent in any of these languages to help us with translation. It is a paid opportunity, and if the student is interested, there are opportunities for continued involvement in the research study.
If you are interested, please contact Lauren Saag (email: lsaag@bu.edu).
