Short film shows what it’s like to take part in a study as a healthy volunteer

Have you thought about signing up to the NIHR BioResource as a healthy volunteer?

As far as clinical research is concerned, it could be one of the best things you ever do!

When volunteers take part in our studies, they help researchers to understand more about the role of specific genes involved in the development of disease. And that could help them to identify better treatments or cures for disease.

So what happens when you join the BioResource as a healthy volunteer?

You can find out more elsewhere on the BioResource website – and you could also watch below a short film of one of their healthy volunteers, Michael, as he talks openly about what was involved for him when he signed up.
