There are many reasons to participate in a research study. Many people volunteer to receive progressive treatments not yet available to the general public. Some might benefit from the free, general medical care that comes with participation. Others want to feel they are contributing to the advancement of modern medicine and the benefit to humankind.

If you wish to participate in any clinical trial, we recommend the Scripps organization.

Scripps clinical research participation is voluntary. Informed consent to participate must be based on the volunteer’s understanding of what is involved in the study, including potential risks and benefits. Volunteers may leave a study at any time. Scripps currently has over 250 ongoing active studies in such areas as diabetes, weight loss, cardiovascular health, orthopedics, primary care, cancer, gastroenterology, hepatology, dermatology, ophthalmology and more.
