The success of the respiratory health study depends on the participation of individuals randomly selected.
A number of studies have brought us closer to identifying the problem, but none to date has undertaken such a comprehensive look at the taconite industry with clear desire for providing answers.
Participation today may not benefit the individual, but the value will grow over time, improving lives in years to come. Individuals who participate will directly contribute to the health and well being of generations of children in their own community.
If you are not selected to participate, you can support the study by encouraging your family, friends and neighbors that have been selected, to call the University to find out more about the study.
