    Our lab needs Spanish-speaking interns! The lab of Dr. Kay Dewey, in the
    Department of Nutrition, is currently running a research project with
    participants of the WIC (Women, Infants, and Children Supplemental
    Nutrition Program) program in Sacramento County. We are enrolling 250
    infant/mother pairs, and estimate ~1/3rd to 1/2 will be Spanish-speaking
    only. We have some bilingual staff on site at the clinics, but need
    students who can make phone calls to Spanish-speaking moms from our lab in
    Meyer Hall. Our study will be ongoing through June and we are looking for
    about 3 students to commit to 2 credit hours (6 hours/week) for winter and
    spring quarter.
    For your participation as an intern, you can expect to:

    Work with Faculty in the Nutrition Department
    Get research experience
    Learn about nutrition of young infants
    And get letters of recommendation for future use.

    If you are interested, please email Katie Prochaska at
    kprochaska@ucdavis.edu as soon as possible. She will send you further
    information, along with an application.

    Thank you,
    Katie Prochaska
