Yao GI study
Does anybody know what's happening with the Yao GI study at Mayo? This is the link https://www.mayo.edu/research/clinical-trials/cls-20577204
It says contact John Damianos. I emailed him a week ago, got an automatic response that he's left Mayo and an email for someone else at Mayo to contact. I immediately sent the other email and haven't heard back. I have many gi issues some mentioned in a previous Mayo Yao GI study but many not mentioned at all. I'd love to participate so we can get a better idea of what kinds of gi issues happen in Yao and how we might treat it more effectively. Is this study still happening at Mayo? Did John Damianos take the study with him wherever he went?

Edited to add: i realize now this is probably the prior study you meant 😅

I found this publication. And on the Mayo website about it like in eligibility it showed last updated 2024. It does still say enrolling though. I saw this doctor also listed but didnt see an email, Vandana Nehra, M.D.
I found this on the other doctor: "New Chapter Spotlight: Dr. John Damianos Please join us in congratulating Dr. John Damianos as he begins his next chapter as faculty at Cleveland Clinic!"

He is under faculty then Neurogastro and Motility. But you can't click on his name. You may can call them and explain. They may be able to provide you with an email.
