Researchers at the University of Gloucestershire are looking for participants for a study looking at how exercise can help people with Fibro.

They need as big a group of both male and female participants as possible, though the researchers are especially interested in attracting male particpants as there is a particular lack of evidence for interventions for men with Fibro.

The research has been instigated by Dr. Andrew J Misiura, a Senior Lecturer in Biochemistry and researcher, who has Fibro himself.

Free access to Gym facilities and comprehensive clinical chemistry blood and saliva analysis will be available for volulnteers willing to take part in the study.

For more information, or to register for the study, see here:
