02-Feb-10  The University of Louisville is seeking male veterans to participate in a study on hearing loss. To qualify, you must be a male veteran that has a known hearing loss and has chosen not to wear hearing aids or, a male veteran that has hearing loss, has received hearing aids, but doesn’t use them anymore. The study consists of a few questions over the phone to determine if you qualify, then an hour long interview about your experiences in seeking help for your hearing problem. If you qualify, you will receive a $25 gift card for your participation. Interested participants may call 502-852-3990 or email hearing@louisville.edu.

13-Nov-09  There are two research studies underway that some Gulf War veterans may be eligible for:

1. Dr. John Shoffner is a researcher at Georgia State University in mitochondrial disease who is performing a study of individuals diagnosed with Gulf War Syndrome. The mitochondria have many functions that include changing the foods we eat into a usable form of energy known as ATP (adenosine triphosphate). All the cells of our body use this energy to run the biochemical reactions that allow our cells to function properly. Hence, the mitochondria act as tiny power plants inside of every cell. For information about the study, please visit www.medicalneurogenetics.com and follow the Gulf War Syndrome study links.
2. The Department of Veterans Affairs is conducting a study aimed at understanding brain function of pain in Gulf War veterans with Muscle and Joint Pain & Rheumatoid Arthritis. Please click here for more information.
