  • The ROSTMEMA study is searching for Dutch-speaking interns, who want to help with our Clinical Trial: ‘ROSTMEMA: A drug for the cognitive sequela (mostly memory) after stroke’. The intern would help collecting data for our research, by filling out questionnaires and performing neuropsychological tests (memory, concentration, reaction time etc.) with our participants. These tests are a standard test battery, widely used in research as well as in clinical practice. Participants will receive the drug (Roflumilast) or placebo for three months in which the measurements will take place three times. There will be some extra measurements for the Open-Label study. The participants are screened at the University, follow up meetings will be at their homes, so the intern would be asked to move around a bit. Depending on the interns interests, they could help out with different stages in the data processing progress. More information about the research can be found on www.rostmema.nl. If you are interested in this internship you can contact: Jill Kerckhoffs (j.kerckhoffs@maastrichtuniversity.nl). Interns would be able to start at any time that fits their program.
