Interested in being part of a research study?

By Celeste Bingham
Jean Brown Research has played an important role in helping pharmaceutical companies conduct clinical research trials needed to bring valuable medicines to the public and providing insightful study results to help bring new medications and procedures to market. 

In high school, I signed up with Jean Brown Research to get my wisdom teeth removed for free and receive compensation. The experience, minus the recovery from the surgery, was painless. After having my wisdom teeth removed, I was taken to a building where I was monitored for 6 hours on my pain level. As a teenager, I was excited about the bottomless pudding and the endless selection of movies to watch to pass my time. Not to mention, I received 400 dollars! I had other friends who also participated and their compensation amount varied. This was over a decade ago.

For more than twenty years, Jean Brown Research has played an important role in helping pharmaceutical companies conduct clinical research trials needed to bring valuable medicines to the public and providing insightful study results to help bring new medications and procedures to market. Clinical trials and medical research are so important that pharmaceutical companies spend millions of dollars over a period of time to study a single medicine. Jean Brown Research has contributed to the development of innovative medicines such as new pain relief drugs or vaccines for medical conditions, ranging from wisdom teeth to diabetic peripheral neuropathy. Each clinical trial must follow a protocol that has been written per government regulations. The protocol is the study plan that is not only carefully designed to protect the participants, but answer specific research questions.
If being part of a research study and having your time and travel covered is something you are interested in, visit their study page to learn more. They also have a healthy volunteer form you can fill out and a team member will contact you with information on studies you may be eligible for now or in the future.
