From Dr. Lo: “I am one of the pediatric neurologists. I do clinical research. I mostly recruit patients for clinical studies of stroke, Sturge-Weber syndrome, or infant rehabilitation following stroke. I don’t have my own research lab. Rather I collaborate with others who have their own research team, and they will have their own coordinator or treating therapist or assessor. Since stroke in children is uncommon, our recruitment rate is fairly slow, perhaps one child every two months or so. As such anyone involved with my projects likely has to be involved for at least a year or more. There are opportunities to write a paper over the year’s time, but since I collaborate with a number of individuals, they do have to provide input regarding the writing of any paper. So the process is slow. The level of trainee who will find this type of work informative is likely a senior resident or a fellow.”
