Monday, July 24, 2011 – Our incredible special guests tonight are Anne Leserman and Pat Ryan from the University of Iowa. Pat is the research coordinator for PREDICT-HD at the UI, and Anne is PREDICT-HD's recruitment coordinator. PREDICT-HD is an observational study of healthy persons who have been tested for the Huntington disease gene expansion but have not been diagnosed with any symptoms of the disease. Study investigators are identifying the earliest signs of HD so future drug trials can be designed to target those early changes and develop treatments that greatly delay the onset of the disease or prevent it altogether. Study staff are looking to recruit and enroll new participants at 28 sites in the U.S., Canada, United Kingdom, Australia and Germany.
