[edit] Background

The Center for Behavioral and Decision Sciences in Medicine is a joint center between the University of Michigan and the Veterans Affairs Medical Center. They study the behaviors and decisions that occur in the medical setting, with a main focus on patient decision making. A primary concern for them is family attitudes and behaviors toward genetic testing, and they are researching this for the VA medical center for VA patients.
