Am I Eligible?
Is the GEMS study right for you? Let’s see if you might be eligible. If you are, we can tell you more before you decide if you want to join.
Step 1: Read the information below and decide if you want to be screened for eligibility.
Step 2: Indicate your response. If you agree to screening, you’ll be asked to answer a short survey.
What You Need to Know
We are asking you to answer some questions about yourself. This will help us determine if you might be eligible to join the GEMS study. This study is only open to people who meet certain criteria.
The survey will take about 5 minutes to complete. It will ask about your smoking history, demographics, and other information. You don’t have to answer these questions, but if you don’t, we won’t be able to determine your eligibility to continue. We may also look at digital information about your geographic location when you complete this survey to help us determine your eligibility.
If it looks like you might be eligible to join GEMS, you’ll be given more information about the study and asked if you want to join. If you say yes, you’ll be given additional instructions about how to complete your enrollment. You must complete all steps to enroll and participate in GEMS.
Your answers to the screening questions will be kept confidential. They will only be used for research. No information will be shared without your permission, and we will not share your information with others.
We won’t ask your name or contact information as part of this initial screening. You’ll provide that later if you’re interested in joining GEMS.
You can Learn More or email us at gems@kp.org if you have questions before proceeding. Please allow 2-3 business days for a reply.
