The Omentum

Many cancer survivors are living without an omentum, but very few people are familiar with this organ. Moreover, there is very little medical information about the omentum. ​

Eat Popcorn for Science!

Some ovarian cancer survivors report noticing various symptoms after consuming a salty meal. The Omentum Project is conducting an IRB-approved, online survey, “Processing Salty Food with/without an Omentum.” The survey includes a “citizen science” project component, which asks participants to consume a specific salty-food item and report on specific symptoms they experience after consumption.

 

The Omentum Project needs 400 women to meet our goal to determine if there is a statistically significant difference between individuals with or without an omentum. The scientific process takes time. Knowledge builds gradually, iteratively, and collaboratively. Participate to empower cancer survivors living without an omentum!
