In the forth episode of Unifying Research, I sit down with a clinical research coordinator to discuss what it means to be a research coordinator. The job of a coordinator is one of the most important in our industry, yet most people don't fully understand or appreciate everything on a coordinator's plate. Then, I had the privilege of speaking with the President of a non-profit that provides flights to children in need of care. My research expert guest is Jen Powers, a research coordinator at the UC Gardner Neuroscience Institute at the University of Cincinnati. Jen has nearly 20 years of clinical care experience, with almost half of that being in a research coordinator role. Jen explains what a coordinator does as well as some of the major challenges of the role. The patient-side guest for this episode is Pat Nelli, the President and CEO of Children's Flight of Hope, a non-profit providing flights to essential, life-changing, and life-saving medical care for children in need. The work they do is extraordinary and it's refreshing to hear such passion coming from the president of a company doing this kind of work. Additional resources:"A Legacy of Care: Mother-Daughter Duo Making a Difference at UC Health" - an article about Jen PowersConnect with Pat Nelli on LinkedInCheck out Children's Flight of Hope websiteConnect with Univo to learn more about our mission and servicesLearn more about Univo's partners working together to bring the patient's voice to research:Clinical Trials For AllSavvy CooperativeInspireChildren's Flight of HopeAAHRPP
