TOURETTE SYNDROME RESEARCH
STUDY SEEKS PARTICIPANTS
The Tourette Syndrome Association International
Consortium for Genetics (TSAICG) is collaborating with the National
Institute of Neurological Diseases and Stroke on genetic studies to find
chromosomes that contain the genes for TS.
They are looking to enroll 3000 participants who
have Tourette in this study. Participants must have a diagnosis of
TS from a doctor and be at least 6 years old. Those who qualify
will be asked to provide a blood sample for genetic analysis. Only
one individual from any family will be accepted.
If you are interested in participating, please go
to findtsgenes.org at which
potential participants can register
- Candidates will fill out an online
questionnaire to determine their eligibility
- If eligible, research assistants will guide
them through the consent process
- Blood samples can be taken at Quest
Diagnostics or by the individual's doctor.

participants' homes
- Ten percent of participants will also be
selected for detailed follow up interviews
