Hello Everyone,
---------
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

They are primarily looking for families in the New England area, but they
sometimes travel to other areas of the country for data collection.
Thank you!
