Alzheimer’s and dementia research needs you!

The following is a message from the National Institute on Aging:

 

Alzheimer’s and related dementias clinical trials nationwide are looking for volunteers just like you!

Many people say participating in a clinical trial is a way to play a more active role in their own health care. Other people say they want to help researchers learn more about certain health problems. Whatever the motivation, when you choose to participate in a clinical trial, you become a partner in scientific discovery. And, your contribution can help future generations lead healthier lives. Major medical breakthroughs could not happen without the generosity of clinical trial participants.
