Just so you all know, I've connected many of my clients with the Columbia research team. They are doing really important research that is truly at the forefront of brain research with PWS.

Hello All,

I participated in this study @ Columbia in January 2009. It was good experience, albeit a long day. I spent the night before with a friend in Brooklyn, then subwayed into the city to CU.

I would recommend anyone who can to try it. Research helps. Feel free to ask me any questions if you want to know more about it.
