Research Now Healthcare Launches Autoimmune Panel

Research Now Healthcare has launched an Autoimmune Panel in North America, providing access to more than 80,000 US and Canadian respondents with autoimmune-related diseases.

Research Now Healthcare is a portfolio company of online sampling and data collection specialist Research Now, which has been managing healthcare panels in North America since 2006, and now runs healthcare panels in Canada and the UK, as well as a panel made up of diabetes and arthritis sufferers.

Through the latest panel, researchers can access panellists who have been diagnosed with celiac disease, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), lupus, multiple sclerosis, or psoriasis. Following the North American roll out, the panel will be launched in select European markets by the end of 2014.

Vincent DeRobertis (pictured), SVP of Global Healthcare, comments: 'Data collection on the topic of autoimmune diseases is particularly complex as it covers a broad range of diseases with symptoms that are often misdiagnosed or ignored. With the launch of our Autoimmune Panel, we are able to offer researchers a more holistic solution for gaining a deeper understanding of each of the conditions as they relate to one another.'
