COVID-19 and health equity qualitative research assistant

Seeking graduate and undergraduate students interested in COVID-19 and health equity qualitative data analysis for autumn 2024

The C3-REACH team is seeking two to three graduate or undergraduate students to  assist with qualitative data analysis starting this fall. Students will use NVivo software in the CPH computer lab on the second floor of Cunz Hall. This is primarily an in-person position.
   
The C3-REACH (Committed to Communities Collaborative: Research and Engagement to Advance Beyond COVID to Health Equity) team is comprised of multi-disciplinary scholars and students oriented towards health equity in their work. Led by Dr. Tasleem Padamsee of The Ohio State University College of Public Health, the team is engaged in several projects that aim to address the inequitable burdens of the COVID-19 pandemic on communities made vulnerable to disparities due to social and structural determinants of health. These projects use mixed methods research and emphasize community collaboration and engagement in research processes. Offering a holistic approach to health equity within and beyond the COVID-19 pandemic, the members of our group represent a variety of academic disciplines including but not limited to sociology, medicine, health promotion and public policy. Members also extend beyond Ohio State to include participants from other academic and medical institutions as well as community collaborators. 
   
We are considering applicants who have an interest in COVID-19 research as it relates to historically marginalized communities in Ohio and the United States and an interest in qualitative data analysis. Please email montgomery.1086@osu.edu with a copy of your current resume and a one-paragraph description of why you want to be involved in this research and how this opportunity will contribute to your education.
