What is the Join Us register?

Join Us is a simple online register that connects you with researchers to help prevent, treat and find cures for health conditions.

For you, your family, your neighbours and for everyone.

Information for researchers

Join Us is a secure, online research register that provides access to a database of community members who are interested in being contacted about research that might be relevant to their health status.

Acknowledgement of Country

The Join Us Register Acknowledges the Traditional Owners of the lands across Australia as the continuing custodians of Country and acknowledge the many Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people of this land. We pay our respect to First Nations peoples and Elders, past and present.

We acknowledge and celebrate the knowledge and the strengths of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and communities and recognise their continuing connection to land and waters.

We thank the many Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities, and the many individuals, organisations that have supported and guided us through our journey.

There is a huge opportunity to partner more with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities to build on existing community strengths and resilience, often in the face of ongoing inequities. Through Join us, we will work together in the spirit of reciprocity to address ongoing impacts of colonisation so that we can all realise optimal health and wellbeing

Studies Currently Recruiting

Co-Designing a Wellbeing Program for Older Adults with Dual Sensory Impairment

The combination of both vision and hearing loss already affects 1 in 4 adults aged 80 years and older and the associated communication challenges significantly impacts the quality-of-life, independence and social participation of those affected. There is an urgent need for targeted interventions to better manage these immense psychosocial challenges for this inevitably growing population.

The LEAP Study

[This study has CLOSED] Researchers at Monash University think that the activities of parenthood and the mental load —all the thinking, planning, and decision-making that comes with raising children may lead to lasting changes to cognition (our thinking skills), brain structure and function.

Measuring the Accuracy of a Vision-Based Food Intake Logging App

Traditional food-tracking methods, like writing down everything you eat, can be tricky and inaccurate. Collect meals’ data to help researchers testing a new app designed to help people monitor their diet and food intake.

What’s impacting your back pain?

Help University of Queensland researchers understand what and how factors (across domains of biology, psychology, sociology and behaviour) relate to back pain by completing a series of online surveys.
