We’re excited to be launching a brand-new phase of the Gemini study, as the twins move from adolescence into early adulthood.

 

In this next chapter, we want to learn more about how young people develop eating habits, how they feel about food and their bodies, and how these experiences differ from person to person. 

 

By taking part in our new survey, you’ll be helping us understand how to better support young people to build healthy eating patterns and feel good about their bodies and themselves. And because you’re twins, your input offers researchers a rare and valuable chance to explore how genes (nature) and life experiences (nurture) shape eating behaviour during this important stage of life.

 

​​​​❗We know that filling out surveys can sometimes feel a bit tedious and boring — but please know that what you share with us really matters. Every response helps, and we encourage you to take your time and answer thoughtfully and honestly. Everything you tell us will be kept completely confidential and securely stored.

 

Thank you for being part of Gemini for the past 17–18 years! This study wouldn’t exist without you, and we’re so grateful for your involvement.
