Research Recruiting Opportunities

We strive to empower patient-centered research and culturally appropriate community education by recruiting participants for clinical trials, surveys, focus groups, and interviews in partnership with our member organizations and many collaborators.

We do our best to empower our global community aiming to elevate the patient voice from different regions of the world, including regions who do not normally participate in clinical research.

Albert Einstein said, “Don’t listen to the person who has the answers; listen to the person who has the questions…”

GAAPP recruit participants to help your questions find the answers and inform better care delivery, improved treatments, new therapies, and better medical devices

Open Surveys

GAAPP has been collaborating with the Copenhagen Institute for Futures Studies on a new programme of work about the future of COPD prevention and management at both the practice and policy level. As well as the production of an index which will compare countries. They are also undertaking a Delphi study.

Advisory Boards and Patient Insights

The BURDEN initiative is a research project to examine the impact of Non-Cystic Fibrosis Bronchiectasis (NCFBE) on the everyday life of people living with NCFBE and their caregivers. It is also commonly referred to as bronchiectasis (without cystic fibrosis) or just bronchiectasis. Bronchiectasis is a chronic, often progressive lung disease characterized by irreversible and abnormal widening of the bronchi and chronic symptoms.
