What You Need to Know Before You Apply

What is the purpose of this trial?

The goal of this clinical trial is to understand how many individuals who previously participated in the Indiana Biobank will return a type 1 diabetes home screening kit based upon different methods of recruitment communication. The main question it aims to answer is:

What form of recruitment communication is most effective for completing a type 1diabetes home screening kit?

Researchers will compare two types of recruitment contact: email and mail based communication (low-touch) versus phone contact and follow-up by a research team member (high-touch).

Participants will be contacted either via email/mail or by phone and asked if they want to complete a type 1 diabetes home screening kit.
