The entire process should take about 60-90 minutes to complete. The steps include completing an Informed Consent, answering a medical history questionnaire, having blood drawn, and donating your tissue. Please let me know if you have any questions.
Before Saturday, please watch our Standardized Informed Consent presentation HERE. If you don’t have a chance to do it before you come, we will have a couple of stations for you to watch it before you meet with one of our research team members.
