Genetic Counselling Survey

A graduate student has asked us to support her survey into attitudes and opinions on genetic counselling. It looks like a good survey, and we'll try to publish the results after it is completed. We encourage you to participate:

This study has been designed to assess the perceptions of people with schizophrenia and their relatives. It aims to determine whether genetic counseling is useful for the people with schizophrenia in their family and to understand what genetic counseling should focus on.
