All appointments scheduled for today will be cancelled and rescheduled since McMaster University is closed due to inclement weather. All appointments will resume as normal tomorrow. Stay warm!

Reminder time! As more of you complete your in-person visits, you’ll be introduced to the 2 newly introduced online questionnaires.
First, a general questionnaire (approx. 10 – 20 minutes). The link has been emailed to you
Second, a 3-day food recall which you will be able to access via the login information provided to you during your appointment (approx. 5 minutes per recall). Remember, the survey is for 2 weekdays and 1 weekend day. The following is the link to the survey: https://asa24.nci.nih.gov/.
The transition online was made in order for a shorter and easier participant experience at the lab. As always, let us know if you have any questions!
