What this study is about

The Pennington Generation Cohort is an observational study comprised of Louisiana families. Families will be assessed at baseline for a variety of traits and behaviors, and then followed up over time to try to understand the role of lifestyle and the environment on the risk of developing obesity and other health outcomes.

A promising-looking record is not the same as confirmed eligibility. The study team must review the full criteria and current recruitment status.
