CoIN Study
(COVID-19 impact on wellbeing in families of children with rare neurogenetic disorders)
The CoIN Study, organised by Kings College London researchers, is focused on the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on mental health and wellbeing in families of children with rare genetic and neurodevelopmental disorders, like Tuberous Sclerosis Complex.
​The CoIN Study will track changes in wellbeing during and after the pandemic in order to understand the specific challenges facing families of children with rare disorders and how these relate to mental health and wellbeing. Responses will be rapidly fed back to charities and support organisations, such as the TSA, and used to identify and provide better ways of supporting you both now and in the future.
