Have you or a family member had genetic testing for the purpose of determining what medications would be most effective in treating mental illness? Would you be interested in speaking with a journalist about your experience?
Beth Daley, a reporter at the New England Center for Investigative Journalism, based at WGBH and Boston University, is working on a story on genetic tests and is looking for people to chat with who have had genetic tests to help guide treatment for depression, ADHD, and schizophrenia. (Some of these tests are geneSight, genecept, Myriad P450, Prooove, etc.)
If you have had experience with these tests and are interested in talking to her — anonymously is fine, although she hopes to eventually find someone to talk on the record — you can reach her at beth_daley@wgbh.org or 617-300-2372.
