Phenotypic and Genetic Architecture of OCD In Black Populations (H-55328)

The OCD research program at the Baylor College of Medicine in the Department of Psychiatry is looking for research participants for a study on genetics and OCD in African American populations. The purpose of this study is to gain a better understanding of the clinical and genetic aspects of OCD in individuals with Black or African ancestry. This will help us to learn about genes that are associated with the disorder across diverse populations.

To participate, you must fulfill the below-listed characteristics:

• Identify as Black/African American or mixed race including Black
• Age 5-70 years old
• Been diagnosed with OCD at some point in your life or currently experiencing symptoms you think might be OCD

Participants will receive compensation for their time.
