A research study is currently underway investigating how Canadian academics
with multiple sclerosis (MS) negotiate the workplace.  A goal of the study
is to increase understanding of workers' experiences and employment-related
decisions.  Interviews are being conducted with three groups of academics
who have MS: (1) those who hold full-time academic positions; (2) those who
hold part-time and contractually-limited academic positions; and (3)
retired faculty members.  Interested in participating in a phone
interview?  Want more information about the study?  Contact Valorie Crooks
at crooks at sfu.ca or by phone at 778-782-3507.
