Is BP involved with the study in any way?
BP is not involved in this study. They were not involved in the design of the study and play no role in carrying it out or analyzing the study data. BP has donated money to the National Institutes of Health to fund health research related to the oil spill. Some of the money that BP donated will be used for the GuLF STUDY. But, most of the money for the study comes from the NIH directly.
