Recruitment Update

Where do we stand now?

We had a very busy summer at the Ontario Science Centre - in fact, 7024 kids and teens took part in our study! However, as followers of the blog may already know, our goal is to collect behavioural data and saliva samples from 10,000 children and teens.

What are our next steps?

Even though we didn't reach our goal, we're not discouraged. In fact, we will be back at the Science Centre on several dates through the months of September and October in order to collect more data and hopefully reach our goal of 10,000 participants.

When are we back at the Ontario Science Centre?
