What is the Type 1 Diabetes Genetics Consortium study?

The Type 1 Diabetes Genetics Consortium (T1DGC) is an international group that has formed to confirm and identify type 1 diabetes susceptibility genes. Internationally, the T1DGC project aims to collect DNA samples and has recently turned its focus on collection of minority Mexican-American and African-American participants. All health information collected is confidential and DNA data will be stored centrally without personal identifiers. Visit the Website: www.t1dgc.org

Who can participate?

Mexican-American or African-American families in
which there is one child with type 1 diabetes. We
would like the participation of the child with
diabetes and both parents.

Mexican-American or African-American individuals
with type 1 diabetes.

Mexican-American or African-American individuals
without type 1 diabetes and that have no immediate
family members with diabetes.

What do I have to do as a study participant?

Participation involves answering some questions
about your family medical history and giving a
small blood sample. It is not necessary to travel
to Seattle to participate.
