Studies which are Now Recruiting

This research study aims to understand whether families of individuals with Down syndrome have received education from healthcare providers about the risk of infantile spasms and to identify if there are geographic or demographic differences in who receives this information.

Adults with Down syndrome will play games and do simple activities on the computer, on paper, and with board games. These activities help researchers learn how people think and solve problems. Parents or caregivers will answer questions about everyday skills, like memory and daily routines.

The purpose of this study is to examine the connection between menopause, caregiving responsibilities, and physical activity among mothers of children with or without disabilities in the United States.
