    Volunteer Needed for a COVID Vaccine-related Study

    We are currently recruiting participants for a paid research study in tracking gut health during COVID-19 vaccine. Participation will include completing questionnaires about symptoms and experiences you have related to the COVID-vaccination and providing blood and stool samples and nasal swabs. This study includes three in-person visits to UConn School of Nursing biobehavioral research lab at Storrs or Farmington.

    If you are 18 years old or above and plan to receive the first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine, you may be eligible to participate.

    You may not be eligible if you have already received the COVID-19 vaccine or you have certain medical conditions such as autoimmune disorders, or severe neurological conditions.

    Participants will receive up to $100 for completing the study.
