Research Study on Asthma

01 Sep Research Study on Asthma

The goal of this study is to learn more about the causes of asthma, particularly what underlies asthma symptoms and the reasons some people have asthma while others do not.

As a part of this study, we are asking volunteers with and without asthma to undergo lung function testing, with samples collected from sputum (mucus from the lungs) and blood.

This study includes up to six visits at the University of Washington Medical Center – Montlake campus and Seattle Allergy & Asthma Research Institute, a clinic located in Northgate.

Compensation:
Study volunteers will receive free parking and $50 per visit.
