MDJunction to me

"MDJunction to me is somewhere i feel safe i feel i can be myself and not be judged. I love the fact that i get to see that im not alone in what i am going through and i also get the chance to help others on their journey through guidance and communication.
I would truly be lost without MDJunction... to me its my savior, my personal place to go where i don’t feel so alone anymore in the world.

Hello everyone,

Researchers at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston are looking for families with a child at least 6 years old diagnosed with one or more of these three conditions (TS, ADHD, OCD)to participate in a genetic study. All family members will be asked to complete interviews, questionnaires and assessments examining thinking processes. We also want a blood or saliva sample from everyone for DNA testing. Families will be paid $100 upon completion of all study tasks.

We are primarily looking for families in the New England area, but we sometimes travel to other areas of the country for data collection.

**We will be in Houston, TX in March 2008.

If you are interested in learning more about this research study,

please visit our website at www.ts-adhd.ocd.org , which contains our contact info.

Thank you!

Adrianne
