Timeline
Interventions
Personalized information about ways that participants can protect themselves and their child from developing melanoma.
Standard information about ways that participants can protect themselves and their child from developing melanoma.
After signing informed consent, a biologic sample (saliva) will be collected for the purpose of DNA extraction determination of MC1R genotypes. All participants who carry high risk MC1R genotypes and a proportion of those who carry low risk or no MC1R variants will be randomized to the control or intervention arm.
