Volunteers Needed

Volunteers are needed for a study called Early Inflammatory Arthritis Help-Seeking Experience (ERAHSE-2). Do you want to share your experience?

Researchers from the University of British Columbia and Arthritis Research Centre of Canada (ARC), in collaboration with Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston USA, are conducting a study about people's early experiences of arthritis, or arthritis-like symptoms.

Any information you give us will be anonymous.

You will receive $50.00 as a thank you for your time and to cover your parking/travel expense.
