The ALK Life Study Has Moved to Wayne State University

Thank you for your interest in—and continued support of—the ALK Life Study. Your participation makes this important research possible.

This remains the same study under the same leadership. Your information remains confidential, and research protections continue to apply.

New participants

Why did the study move?

In October 2023, I moved from the University of Washington to Wayne State University and became Associate Center Director for Education at Karmanos Cancer Institute. At that time, oversight of the study transitioned to Wayne State University’s Institutional Review Board. We have now also moved the survey data to Wayne State’s secure REDCap system, bringing all aspects of the study together in one place.

This study is approved by the Wayne State University Institutional Review Board (IRB-23-12-6407).

With gratitude,
