No idea, I came across the link elsewise.

They're not doing the study, they're commissioning companies that do
this sort work. The proposed questions were listed in 1st email.

If you contribute $100, you get to write something short for them about
your concerns and contribute to the questions.

Only game in town, so far. Hope its better than nothing.
