DNA Reimbursement Continues!
The DNA reimbursement program we piloted last year was so successful that the Board has decided to continue it as a regular program of the Alliance.
VHLFA will reimburse $100 toward the cost of DNA testing in return for your willingness to register with the NDRI tissue bank and share with us a copy of your DNA report.
By doing so, you are providing genotype information for any tissue samples you donate to the bank. This makes your samples of even greater interest to researchers, and helps stimulate their interest in studying VHL.
Please contact Ranjana with any questions: write to bank@vhl.org or call 800-767-4845 ext 4.
Thank you!
