This is an interdisciplinary, longitudinal observational project supported by the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute.

The role is highly hands-on and includes data collection, IV placement for repeated blood draws, processing and storing blood/urine/saliva samples, anthropometric measures (height, weight, waist circumference), body composition and resting blood pressure assessment, dietary intake preparation, participant home visits, and sleep assessment using polysomnography. The position also involves data entry and analysis, including manual sleep scoring according to American Academy of Sleep Medicine standards, ELISA-based and other assay analyses, participant communication, recruitment, scheduling, staff training, and supervision.
Eligibility highlights: a Master’s degree in Kinesiology, Psychology, Nutrition, Nursing, or Clinical Health Studies, or a Bachelor’s degree plus 3+ years of related experience. Preferred experience includes prior data collection in sleep, diet, physical activity, blood draw, or IV placement. Strong communication, discretion, judgment, and willingness to work evenings/weekends are required, along with reliable transportation.
