Hello Everyone,
Family Genetic Study of Tourette Syndrome (TS), Attention Deficit
Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), and Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)
Researchers at the Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston are
enrolling families for a genetic study in which there is at least one
child 6 years of age or older diagnosed with one or more of the
following: Tourette Syndrome (TS), Attention Deficit Hyperactivity
Disorder (ADHD), and/or Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD). All
family members will be asked to participate by completing interviews,
questionnaires and cognitive assessments and by providing a blood or
saliva sample for DNA testing. Study participation is strictly
voluntary and may require approximately 3-6 hours per person. Upon
completion of all study tasks, families will be paid $100 for their
participation.
If you are interested in learning more about this study, please call
the Genetic Family Study at 1-800-471-2730, option 2 or visit our
website at www.ts-adhd-ocd.org.
We are primarily looking for families in the New England area, but we
sometimes travel to other areas of the country for data collection.
Thank you!
