Lincolnshire:
Genetic Links to Anxiety & Depression (GLAD) Study
This is an important study looking at genetic links of anxiety and depression. It’s a relatively short (approx. 20 mins) online questionnaire and then a FREEPOST saliva sample (this is how they collect the ‘genetic’ component). It is open to ANYONE in the UK with or without anxiety and/or depression who is aged 16+. This study is the largest of its kind, aiming for 40,000 participants!
To find out more information and take part, visit: Genetic Links to Anxiety and Depression | GLAD Study, and when asked where you heard about the GLAD study, choose Lincolnshire Partnership Foundation Trust from the dropdown.
Eating Disorders Genetics Initiative (EDGI)
This study is looking at genetic risk factors of eating disorders, including gene-environment interactions, to evaluate risk and predict response to treatment, as well as prognosis. It’s important research, especially because of the increase in individuals contacting Eating Disorder Services during the COVID-19 pandemic. The study is an online questionnaire (approx. 30 mins long) and then a FREEPOST saliva kit (to collect the ‘genetic’ component). It’s open to anyone aged 16 years and over, living in England, and who has experienced symptoms of any eating disorder (this does not have to have been diagnosed).
