A member asked:

Would a clinical trial (research study) be a good choice for me?

Depends: It depends on what your objective is. If you are healthy and want to make money or you have altruistic tendencies (want to help humanity advance in medical knowledge), you may consider enrollment. Same, if you have a disease that has not been discovered a cure for and a study is enrolling patients to experiment a new drug on.

Depends: You need to read the agreement which includes the risks, benefits, options, study design, reimbursement, what will happen if you have problems, etc. Then you need to make a decision if it is something you want to do. Research is not for everyone, but can be beneficial to many.
