One way to earn extra money and help other people is to volunteer for a medical research study. Before a new drug or treatment comes out it must first go through a process of “clinical testing.” These clinical trials make sure that drugs and/or treatments are both safe and effective. Every drug must be tested before it is released to the general public—making clinical trials necessary and important for everyone’s health and well-being.
Depending on the research study you sign up for, you may have to actually have a current medical condition or a specific genetic trait.
