Study Volunteers

It is important for research volunteers to understand the general principles that apply to anyone taking part in the study:

  • Participation is entirely voluntary;
  • While you may or may not experience personal benefits as a result of taking part in the study, knowledge may be gained from your participation that may benefit others; and
  • At any time, patients may decide to discontinue their participation without any negative consequences.

For additional information, please speak with your doctor or call the East Valley Regional IRB at (480) 728-3582.
