Take part in mySkin!
Doctors and scientists from the St John’s Institute of Dermatology at Guy’s Hospital, King’s College London have created an exciting new survey examining psoriasis in the UK.
The mySkin study (myskin.org), which is being run by leadingpsoriasis experts Professor Catherine Smith and Dr Satveer Mahil, was officially launched at the Psoriasis Association Annual Conference in June.
It aims to uncover the complex relationship between psoriasis and our physical and mental health.
Any adult with psoriasis who lives in the UK can complete the mySkin survey - no matter what type of psoriasis you have, how long you have had it, or the areas involved.
You will be asked about your skin, your general health and how you feel. It should only take about 10 minutes to complete.
The mySkin team will keep everyone updated on the findings through the study website myskin.org and social media platforms (@myskinstudy on Instagram and Twitter).
By taking part in mySkin, you can help improve health and treatments for people with psoriasis. For further information and to take part, please visit myskin.org .
mySkin follows on from the success of PsoProtect, a registry for healthcare professionals to report cases of Covid-19 in people with psoriasis, and PsoProtectMe, a survey for people with psoriasis to understand how they were affected during the pandemic.
