ABOUT US

The HBCD study at Oklahoma State University Center for Health Sciences is designed with families in mind. Our team will ensure that families visiting the Hardesty Center for Clinical Research and Neuroscience in Tulsa feel welcome, valued, and safe. Families participating in the HBCD Study will complete all study visits at the Hardesty Research Center, including MRI scans. Our facility has easy and free parking, family-friendly waiting and interview rooms, with comfortable furniture and toys/books for children. Our team members have experience working with caregivers and children from diverse backgrounds, including individuals who have experienced depression, anxiety, adverse childhood experiences, and substance use. Our team is honored to spend time with study participants, and we can’t wait to get to know each family!
