    Hello!

    My name is Miranda Downey and I'm a doctoral student at the University of Maryland. I'm currently recruiting women with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) for a research study to better understand the information related experiences and needs of those living with lupus. If you or someone you know meets the following criteria, I'd love to hear from you!

    Eligibility requirements:
    • 18+ years old
    • Have been diagnosed with SLE by a rheumatologist
    • Receive your medical care in the USA
    • Have had 1+ lupus flare(s) in the last 6 months
    • Take at least 1 medication for lupus
    What's involved:
    • Participate in a 30-minute online survey about your lupus and lupus-related information needs
    • Complete the survey to earn a $15 Tango digital gift card as a thank you for your time!
    How to join:
    To learn more about the study, feel free to contact me at mldowney@umd.edu. 

    Thanks!

    Best,
    Miranda
