SUBJECT:   Invitation to participate in an online survey study at Columbia
University - Dr. Maya Sabatello

 

We invite you to participate in an online survey at Columbia University that
explores views on inclusion of people with disabilities in a type of health
research called "Precision Medicine Research." Precision Medicine Research
looks at a person's genetics, environment, and lifestyle. Knowledge from
this type of research can help physicians improve prevention and diagnosis
of diseases and develop new treatments. 

Our study is funded by the National Institutes of Health.

You are invited to participate in this study because you live in the United
States and are:

*	A deaf adult
*	A hard of hearing adult
*	A blind or low vision adult
*	An adult with a mobility disability

Your views are valuable to us. 

If you agree, we will ask you questions about your views on health research,
especially Precision Medicine Research. You will also be asked to provide
some background information about you (e.g., your race, ethnicity, etc.).
You do NOT need to have prior knowledge about Precision Medicine Research to
participate in this study. 

It will take up to about 45 minutes to complete the survey. 

The survey will be conducted online (see link below). You can complete the
survey on a tablet, computer or smartphone. You can ask another person to
help you to complete the study. We can also schedule a one-on-one Zoom
meeting to support survey completion. If you need any disability
accommodations, please let us know. 

Please note, the survey is currently in English. It will soon be available
also in Spanish and ASL. If you prefer to complete the survey in Spanish or
ASL, let us know by clicking on the link below. We will let you know when
these languages are available.

If we have questions about your survey responses, we will reach out to you
to discuss.

Only the research team will have access to your responses. In the future, we
may share data from this study with other researchers. We will NOT share
your identifying information with anyone outside of the research team.

The study will help us understand how Precision Medicine Researchers and
research institutions can create health research studies that include, and
are respectful of, people with disabilities. 

You are offered a $30 gift card for completing our online study.
