GWI Treatment Development Study Seeking Gulf War veterans in Florida

A Gulf War Illness treatment development research study in Sarasota, Florida, is seeking 1991 Gulf War (Desert Storm) veterans to participate.

The study takes only three to four hours in a single visit to complete, and nominal compensation of $35 is provided to study subjects who complete the short study.



Interested Gulf War veterans should call the phone number listed on the flyer above, or may email Lois Davis at the Roskamp Institute at ldavis@roskampinstitute.net.  

This project is funded by the treatment-focused Gulf War Illness Research Program (GWIRP), part of the Congressionally Directed Medical Research Programs (CDMRP) funded under Defense Health programs.  More information about this project, funded in Fiscal Year 2015 (FY15), is available at:  http://cdmrp.army.mil/search.aspx?LOG_NO=GW150056.

This project builds on an earlier, FY13 GWIRP-funded project, more information about which is available at:  http://cdmrp.army.mil/search.aspx?LOG_NO=GW130045

This project is in collaboration with the GWIRP-funded Gulf War Illness Consortium at Boston University.  More information about the GWIC is available at:  http://sites.bu.edu/gwic/   The GWIC is currently recruiting both healthy 1991 Gulf War veterans and 1991 Gulf War veterans with Gulf War Illness at project sites in Boston, Miami, and Houston.
