93 - Dr Viki Male - Research into Long Covid & Menstruation
Description
Episode 93 of the Long Covid Podcast is a chat with Dr Viki Male who is doing research into Long Covid and menstruation, in collaboration with the app Visible, as well as the Wilco study. We chat about the 2 different studies she is involved in, and how they will hopefully bring together a load of data to give some answers.
This study is a really cool example of a collaboration between people with Long Covid and researchers, so it really demonstrates that people's voices are being heard.
If you're interested in the Wilco study (where you give blood) please email: altmannlongcovidstudy@imperial.ac.uk
