Research Basics:
  • Research participants are part of an international effort to find safe, effective treatments for conditions that impact our quality of life.  Participants usually receive study-related medical evaluations at no cost, and may have other benefits specific to the study, which will be explained in the study's consent form.

  • Each participant in a research study is informed of the study procedures, potential risks and any expected benefits of the study.  At your first study visit, the research team will take time to review this information with you and give you the tools you need to make the decision that's right for you.

  • It's important to understand that research studies do not replace your regular medical care.  When you come for a study visit, you will be asked about any medical experiences you have had since your last visit and any medicines you have taken.

 
We are actively recruiting for trials related to:
  • Adolescent Fibromalgia

  • Adult Fibromyalgia

  • ME/CFS
