Stem Cell Study in Tourette's Disorder

You are invited to participate in a study conducted by Flora Vaccarino, M.D. and colleagues at the Yale Child Study Center. The purpose of this study is to identify factors that influence brain cell development and function in individuals with Tourette Syndrome. We are focusing on how young brain cells (known as “neuronal stem cells”) turn into mature cells (such as “neurons and glia”) and how they all function.
