We work with physicians, researchers, patients, caregivers, public health and government agencies to conduct and support research that is important to people affected by asthma and allergies.<\/p>\n
As a patient or caregiver, you can get involved in research in different ways. From participating in short polls to answering phone interviews to becoming a patient advisor on a research project, you can have a significant impact on asthma and allergy research. Here are some of the ways you can help improve treatments, education and awareness of asthma and allergies:<\/p>\n

Experts use research to study the causes of diseases and symptoms, as well as if treatments work. They also look for medical approaches to prevent, detect or treat diseases and illnesses.<\/p>\n Clinical trials tests medical approaches to see if they work. These trials may include treatments, procedures or changes in behavior. Before these medical approaches can be approved for the public, they are tested through clinical trials usually made up of four phases.<\/p>\n By being part of a clinical trial, you can help advance treatments for asthma and allergic diseases.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_code admin_label=”Print” module_id=”print” module_class=”clearfix” _builder_version=”4.17.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_module=”5156″ saved_tabs=”all” global_colors_info=”{}”]\n
