Bangladeshi and Pakistani people are affected by health conditions such as type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease and mental health problems more often and at younger ages than the rest of the UK population. Genes and Health is trying to help scientists and doctors find out why. We hope that by looking closely at how genes work we will get better at preventing and treating diseases.

Volunteering for the study involves completing a short online questionnaire and providing a saliva sample by post. More information is available in the information leaflet. You can do all of this from home in less than 15 minutes.
