Some studies may provide a token of appreciation, depending on the activity. The details will be shared clearly before you decide whether to take part. Any tokens of appreciation will be managed directly by the respective research teams, subject to participants meeting the study's requirements.
Research studies shared through QCP must have received the necessary ethics approval, such as approval from an Institutional Review Board (IRB) or an equivalent ethics review body, before they are shared with the community.
Each study will also include information about the research team or organisation conducting it and what your participation will involve, so you can make an informed decision before taking part.
If you have any questions about a study shared through QCP, you can contact the QCP team via email at connect@healthdistrictqueenstown.sg or via WhatsApp at +65 8058 6284.
The QCP is an initiative by Health District @ Queenstown. Our goal is to support meaningful research shaped by residents, for residents.
Stay connected to research opportunities in the community and contribute to a healthier Queenstown.
