The assistant’s duties include sending text reminders to facilitate digital data collection from participants, organising incoming data and serving as points of connection between participants and investigators. This is an extremely time-intensive role that requires continuous effort over a year as they will be collating vignettes of daily life sent by participants and extracting additional data that participants may post on their social media accounts. We are thus expecting a high volume of data in various forms (i.e., textual data and non-textual data such as photographs, audio clips and videos) which will need to be transcribed and organised consistently by the assistant. There will also be four virtual interviews conducted with each participant in intervals of three months which will be scheduled and transcribed by the assistant. Other duties include coding of data and surveying the literature. After the one year of data collection, the research assistant will assist the investigators in data analysis and in publication work.</p>\n\n\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 20px; font-family: san-serif;\">At NUS, the health and safety of our staff and students is one of our utmost priorities and COVID-vaccination supports our commitment to ensure the safety of our community and to make NUS as safe and welcoming as possible. Many of our roles require significant amount of physical interactions with student / staff / public members. Even for job roles that can be performed remotely, there will be instances where on-campus presence is required.</p>\n\n\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 20px; font-family: san-serif;\">With effect from 15 January 2022, based on Singapore’s legal requirements, unvaccinated workers will not be able work at the NUS premises.
