The Role of Eosinophils and Basophils in
Chronic Spontaneous Urticaria
​
- A basic science study involving procedures with human participants
​
Welcome to our study website!
​
​
Urticaria is a condition associated with an itchy nettle rash (termed weals or hives) that can be very debilitating. We invite you to participate in a research study aimed at understanding more about why these itchy weals develop in the skin.
​ ​
-
Do you have recurrent hives?
-
Are you aged 18 – 80?
-
Do you want to participate in a research study to find out more about this condition?
We are looking for participants with chronic spontaneous urticaria (daily or almost daily weals for at least 6 weeks) to take part in our study. The study is ethically approved, and led by Dr Stephen Till at Guy’s Hospital, London.
​
Compensation of £150 will be paid for time, travel and inconvenience
If you are interested in participating, please contact Dr Alison Sears, Clinical Research Fellow, on Alison.sears@kcl.ac.uk
