October 10, 2021 A Day in the Life of a Research Nurse
Research nurses work in a multifaceted role. They are both clinical as well as admin, and maybe add management to that. Part of the job is about seeing clinical trial patients but a big portion of it is also involved in project management.

In this episode, I want to share to you about what it’s like to work as a Research Nurse

October 03, 2021 Let’s talk about Skin Cancers
According to the website skincancer.org, 1 in 5 Americans will develop skin cancer by the age of 70. An increase in awareness in skin cancer is significant since the link between UltraViolet exposure and skin cancer is well established.
A lot of people especially during summer holidays bathe in the sun for long periods not knowing that it could pose a risk in the development of skin cancer. Of course there are other factors to consider that contributes to its development but I think it is useful for all of us to be aware about skin cancer so that we can be vigilant enough in having it checked when needed for prevention purposes. ////// Email: [email protected]
