Our Participants Talk About NITARP

  • Denise

    I did not anticipate being so challenged in the NITARP research. I have learned more in [my first] two weeks just getting ready to start working with the data.

    I was also surprised [after the summer visit] not to be more tired. Don't get me wrong, I certainly took a five hour nap on Saturday after coming home on the red-eye from LA, but overall the week left me invigorated rather than exhausted.

  • Laura

    I am gaining in confidence as to my ability to understand, contribute to the study, and the data we will be using.
