Hello neighbors! I'm a research scientist at Carnegie Mellon University and my team and I are currently looking for people to interview on two separate but related topics . 1. Do you know anybody with COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease)? My research team is looking to conduct 1-hr interviews (phone or in person) with COPD patients about their opinions on participating in clinical trials. We will be paying $50 for the interviewees' time. These interviews should be fairly easy to do, and participants can live anywhere in the country. If you know of someone who fits this criteria, please have them email me directly (tamar@cmu.edu) ! They can also contact us via the study email ( informedconsent@andrew.cmu.edu ) or phone: 412-268-6671. 2. We are also looking for any folks who have osteoarthritis (or who have loved ones with arthritis) to participate in 1-hr long interviews, asking some questions about their opinions on how information is presented to the public about new prescription drugs. We will be paying $50 for the interviewees' time for this study, also. If you are interested in finding out more or participating in an interview with me, please contact me directly at tamar@cmu.edu. Thank you! -- Tamar Krishnamurti, PhD Research Scientist Engineering and Public Policy Carnegie Mellon University
