Research study volunteers are essential in shaping the future of medicine. Whether it's a clinical trial of an experimental medication, a comparison of different treatments or a collection of data from people with a similar health condition or genetic background, community participants help researchers translate scientific discovery into lifesaving care. Many of our research studies are specific to knee, shoulder or hip medical procedures or conditions for which you may be a candidate.
