Study Summary

The Anorexia Nervosa Genetics Initiative (ANGI) is the largest and most rigorous genetic investigation of eating disorders ever conducted. Researchers in the United States, Sweden, Australia, and Denmark will collect clinical information and blood samples from over 13,000 individuals with anorexia nervosa and individuals without an eating disorder. ANGI represents a global effort to detect genetic variation that contributes to this potentially life-threatening illness. The goal of the research study is to transform knowledge about the causes of eating disorders to work toward greater understanding and ultimately a cure. If you have suffered from anorexia nervosa at any point in your life, you can help us achieve this goal. Your contribution would include a brief questionnaire and a blood sample. If you have never had anorexia nervosa, but still want to contribute, we invite your participation as well.
