Consent Form for C8 Science Panel Community StudyTo those who Participated in the C8 Health Project 69,000 participated in the C8 Health Project during 2005-6. If you were one of those, you may have signed a Science Panel Consent Form to allow the Science Panel to contact you for future studies. If you did not sign it, you can still do so. Here we explain what that involves. Several of the C8 Science Panel studies will involve contacting again people who had been in the C8 Health Project, but to do this we need your consent first. So we are asking for your permission to be able to call you and, for example, interview you about your health status over the next one to four years. If you are then called for more information, you will be paid $50 if and when you participate in selected tests. You may have already signed this form. If so, your name is included in those who may be called, and you should not send the consent form in again. Two-thirds of C8 Health Project participants have already signed this form. If you were in the C8 Health Project but did not sign the Science Panel Consent Form, please sign today and return. Having the maximum participation rates will help the Science Panel determine if C8 in any way impacts human health. Download the consent form, and if you agree, please sign and send it in. The C8 Science Panel is the court-appointed independent panel assigned to conduct a community epidemiology study to answer the question of links between C-8 and human disease.
