From Nicola -
University of Otago research: What causes typically masculine behaviour in boys and girls?
Dr Kirstie Morgan is looking for 5 and 6 year old boys to help her complete her research on the naturally-occurring hormone Mullerian Inhibiting Substance and it's effect on children's behaviour. There was an attachment with the email newsletter with information about her research and what is involved if your son takes part - basically, she chats to them for a little while, then observes them playing and using a computer. A blood test is also involved, which puts some people off, but my son took part last year, and was quite happy to have the blood test in exchange for the gift voucher she gave us - I think I may have also mentioned Burger King :-) As well as testing the MIS levels, Kirstie will let you know your son's iron level. If you'd like to find out more or join her study, call Kirstie on 4795350
See the email newsletter or contact Nicola for the attachment
