Research studies get underway all the time in Wisconsin. But as far we can tell, only one will have asthma sufferers carry an inhaler with a GPS device attached to it.

David van sickle is a health scholar in the department of population health sciences. He says the study will try to map when and where the environment triggers asthma symptoms. (Fourth item.)
