The goal of our study is to learn about many different kinds of coughs and the properties that distinguish one type of cough from another. Whether you are sick or healthy, your cough recordings can help our team of public health researchers learn more about infectious diseases and other illnesses. If you choose to participate, you can submit as few or as many coughs as you would like. There is no periodic recording schedule; where and when you participate is entirely up to you.

Like a traditional study, this project has been reviewed and approved by an institutional review board whose mandate is to ensure the protection and welfare of all participants.
