WHY SHOULD I PARTICIPATE?: As research and clinical trials advance, it is more important than ever for people with FSHD to be actively involved in research, in their own care, and in advocacy. When you join BetterLife FSHD, your voice becomes part of a powerful story. Every piece of information that you share contributes to a deeper understanding of FSHD, helping researchers develop more effective treatments.
WHO CAN PARTICIPATE?: BetterLife is for anyone with Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy (FSHD) living in the United States or its territories who is 1 year of age or older. However, if you are not an adult, your parent or legal guardian should sign up for BetterLife with their information, then create a profile for you in their account.
IS MY INFORMATION SECURE?: We are deeply committed to protecting your data and have taken all necessary steps to secure your information. BetterLife FSHD is hosted on a secure data platform that complies with important research and privacy regulations for protecting participant data in research.
