We are looking for individuals who have either been diagnosed with ulcerative colitis OR are completely pain-free to participate in a research study aimed at understanding how racial background and socioeconomic status impact people’s experiences of gastrointestinal pain.

This study requires an in-lab time commitment of about 3-3.5 hours and includes a blood draw, pain sensitivity tests, and several questionnaires. Participants will receive up to $200 for completing the study.
