πŸ™‹πŸ½ Research study participants wanted πŸ™‹πŸ½

Sibylle from Point England

If you're 18+ and experience stomach symptoms like nausea, bloating, reflux, or pain, the University of Auckland invites you to participate in our research.

Help us understand the connection between the body, mind, and stomach. The study involves a big sticker on your stomach that measures signals from your gut (like an ECG) plus a health watch and heart rate monitor. You'll spend 5 hours seated in a comfortable chair in the clinic, then wear the devices home for a day, and return them the next morning. The study takes place at the University of Auckland City Campus or a nearby clinic with free parking. As a thank you, we provide a $50 food or fuel voucher. You are not eligible if you are pregnant, lactating, or have very sensitive skin.

Interested? Complete the form, scan the QR code on the attached flyer, or email gutresearch@auckland.ac.nz
