Now is your chance to receive a free test kit from 23andMe, a $199 value!
If you have been diagnosed with Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis, you may be eligible to receive a free test kit from 23andMe.
This can be a great opportunity to learn about your genetic heritage through the 23andMe® Personal Genome Service at no cost. You will receive personalized reports on your health, traits and ancestry.
You will also play a role in research that may benefit you and others with IBD.
23andMe believe that "DNA may play a key role in IDB treatment." 23andme has partnered with Pfizer in a joint study to "learn how your genes and your environment could play a role in IBD drug treatment, and how they relate to IBD risk and progression."
The objective of this study is to "understand the genetic associations found between IBD patients' DNA and their disease, and apply this understanding to Pfizer's drug development efforts."
If you have already taken a 23andMe DNA test, you may be eligible for compensation for participating in this study.
