The QBC study: Quality of Life and Biomarkers in Communities

We are looking for volunteers to participate in our study on how people respond to oil and gas

development in their communities! Your participation should take no more than 1 hour at a time

for up to 6 visits to our office in Greeley over a 6-9 month period.

During the office visits, we will ask questions about your health, collect height and weight data,

measure blood pressure and blood vessel health, collect a blood sample, collect a small hair

sample, and collect cheek cells from the inside of your mouth with a swab. You will be

compensated with a $30.00 Visa gift card for each visit completed.

In order to qualify for this study you must meet the following criteria:

 18 years old or older

 live within 2 miles of an oil or gas well

 be a non-smoker (tobacco and marijuana)

 cannot live with anyone who regularly smokes in your home

 cannot be pregnant

 cannot have a history of diabetes, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, or chronic

inflammatory diseases

 cannot be taking statins or any anti-inflammatory medications

 cannot be regularly exposed dust, fumes, or solvents

If you would like to participate in this study, or have any questions, call 970-829-7490 or email
