Kinsella Paramedical Services has been selected to be the examining firm to conduct the human subject and participant examinations for the ongoing CODA Sisters Study.
The Sister Study is the only long-term study of environmental and genetic risk factors for breast cancer in the United States and Puerto Rico of women ages 35 to 74 whose sisters had breast cancer. The study will follow 50,000 women for at least 10 years to learn how environment and genes may affect the chances of getting breast cancer.
Under controlled environments a visit is made to the participants home where samples are collected and submitted to our California laboratory. Participants are all female (sisters of women previously diagnosed with breast cancer.) All exminations are conducted by a female examiner.
Sponsored by The National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences, The National Institutes of Health and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. Under controlled environments a visit is made to the participants home where samples are collected and submitted to our California laboratory. We are delighted to be the examiners of choice.
