ClinConnect Summary

The Screening Volunteers for Clinical Trials study is looking for healthy individuals to help researchers learn more about vaccines and how they work. This study is part of a larger effort by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) to find volunteers who may qualify for future vaccine trials. If you are between 18 and 60 years old and in good health, you may be eligible to participate.

As a volunteer, you will be asked questions about your health history and undergo a physical exam. Some blood and urine tests may be done to ensure you meet the health requirements for future studies. It's important to know that during this screening, you will not receive any investigational products or vaccines. If you’re interested in contributing to important vaccine research and meet the eligibility criteria, your participation could make a difference in understanding how to better protect people from diseases.
