Researchers
Recruiting participants for a study on the effect of aged microbiota on Multiple Sclerosis progression. Pairs of cohabitating mother-and-daughter or father-and-son are needed for this study. During your visit, blood samples will be collected and you will be asked to provide a stool sample on-site. Participants are compensated up to $500/pair for successful completion of the study.
Studies have linked the gut flora with various inflammatory diseases. We want to know if the age of your microbiome (your gut flora) impacts inflammatory processes.
