Participate in research about wildfire smoke

September 13, 2024 by DABC

There is a new research study: “Wildfire Smoke and Health Recommendations: Understanding Community Values, Preferences, and Needs”, led by Dr. Chris Carlsten, Dr. Nick Bansback, Dr. Pat Camp, and Dr. Stephanie Harvard of the University of British Columbia.

The research team is looking for people across British Columbia to participate in a 60- to 90-minute focus group or interview about health recommendations and decision-making around wildfire smoke. Focus group/interview participants will receive $60 for their time after completion.

To express interest in participating in a focus group or interview, please visit this link and fill out the screening survey. A research team member will contact respondents to follow up.
