+===== Participant Recruitment =====
-===== Other Useful IT information =====
+We aim to support your volunteer recruitment efforts as much as possible by maintaining a database of individuals interested in participating in research projects at CISC. We can share details about your upcoming projects with these individuals via a mailing list. If they meet your screening criteria and express interest, they can reach out to you directly. Additionally, if you currently have participants who may be interested in taking part in future projects led by other researchers, please encourage them to complete the consent form and send it to cisc@bsms.ac.uk or follow the link below.
