The follow-up phase of the GuLF STUDY is underway.
You can continue to help us answer important questions about any long-term effects of the spill by:
- Responding to requests to confirm or update your contact information
- Completing a brief follow-up telephone interview about your health and lifestyle
Contact Information Updates
We want to stay in touch with you to share study results over time and to see how you are doing. Please respond to our requests for updated contact information and let us know if your information changes. You can update or confirm your contact information at any time by visiting the Updates page of our website, calling our toll-free study hotline (1-855-644-4853; 1-855-NIH-GULF), or emailing the study center at (info@gulfstudy.nih.gov).
Telephone Interviews
You may be invited to take part in a follow-up interview that will help us understand the ongoing physical and mental health effects of the spill. If you receive an invitation letter, please take time to complete the interview. The information you share will also help to shape the ongoing response to this disaster, as well as the response to future oil spills.
