University of Cambridge kidney disease study

Hope everyone is enjoying a lovely Sunday!

I wanted to ask if anyone else with a current or past lupus nephritis diagnosis has been approached by the University of Cambridge to take part in a study for improving kidney disease outcomes?

I received a letter and wanted to make sure it was legit before I agreed to take it further.

Hi.no I haven't but I have been contacted about IMID research with bio resource through the hospital. They want my genes and dna for research into inflammatory disease. X

It's reassuring that they're doing more studies with lupus patients - hopefully this will lead to better treatment outcomes for us all 🤞

I think the research and studies today are all credible. Whilst it may not benefit some of us older suffers with any luck it will the younger generations. X
