Participate

Are you interested in participating in studies conducted at ESC? Most of our studies require local access to our lab, and thus are only suitable for participants who live in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA). If you are a community member from the GTA or a UTSC student, please visit the Contact form and select "Participate" from the drop-down menu. The ESC Lab Manager, Jeff Wong, will reply to you as soon as possible.
