Research in Toronto and Surrounding Area

Individuals are invited to participate in a new project in the Greater Toronto Area that requires people to participate in focus groups. These groups will include people who are pre-symptomatic, in the early stages of HD and spouses/partners/caregivers. Researchers aim to produce an early-stage rating system for HD. The Unified HD Rating scale is used to quantify the severity of HD, but was not designed for all aspects of the very earliest phases of the disease. Contribute to this groundbreaking work being spearheaded by Canadians.

The focus groups will be held February 28, 2009 at the Timothy Eaton Memorial Church, 230 St. Clair Avenue West, Toronto

10am-12noon: Gene +, no symptoms
1pm-3pm: Spouses, Partners or Caregivers
3:30pm-5:30pm: Gene+, early stage
