Research Survey On The Use Of Natural Remedies
Researchers from Northwestern University are conducting a research survey on the use of natural remedies, supplements and camouflage by vitiligo patients, so that dermatologists can provide them with more competent and relevant care.

- Supported By: Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine Department of Dermatology
- Eligibility: age 18 or over, have a diagnosis of vitiligo, AND live in the United States
- Contacts: NUderm-research@northwestern.edu or (312)503-5944.
We would love for those who are 18+ and live in the United States to take this survey. It is totally anonymous and takes about 5-7 minutes.
