UCLA has completed recruitment for the Indoor-Outdoor Air Sampling Study.
Background
- The Aliso Canyon Disaster Health Research Study is a UCLA-led research study on the health impacts of 2015–2016 Aliso Canyon gas well blowout disaster.
- The study will examine short- and long-term health effects of people living and working in the communities near where the disaster occurred.
About Air Monitoring
- UCLA will select study participants to host several air quality monitors inside and outside their homes for a total of four weeks (across two two-week sampling periods) and complete a survey about their home and surrounding environment.
- Participation in the research study is voluntary.
- Data collected from homes will help researchers better understand community exposures during and after the disaster.
To be eligible for selection, participants must:
- Live in the north San Fernando Valley or southeast Ventura County.
- Be at least 18 years of age and live in a non-smoking home.
- Consent to a site visit to determine eligibility to enroll in the study.
