Study includes
1 laboratory visit, 1 follow up visit (~3-4 hours)

pinoys aren't considered asian...colonized by the spanish

Re: My colleague needs some Asians for her study!

actually where im from if your filipino your supposed to mark asian.. even where i live now they tell you to mark asian... filipinos were considered asian long before the colonization of the spanish... just because someone invades your territory means you become that of who has invaded..

even in the phillipines it was considered asian.. and you cant say no cause i was born and raised there
