Prif ddyletswyddau'r swydd

Specific tasks will be:
- Responding to enquiries from potential participants
- Pre-screening potential participants by phone and arranging screening visits
- Obtaining informed consent and conducting screening interviews, including the CDR, MINI and C-SSRS rating scales
- Venepuncture and blood-spinning by centrifuge
- Arranging and attending MRI scans and other clinic visits
- Being a point of contact for trial participants
