College Students Can Make a Difference - Try Clinical Trials
College Students Can Make a Difference - Try Clinical Trials
Being a college student is a full-time job, and it can be challenging to find a steady means of support as an undergraduate. Many students turn to clinical trials from Celerion as a way to make a difference and possibly be compensated for their time. If you’re looking to take part in a clinical trial while also trying to be a college student, Celerion could be a good fit.
Why Choose Celerion for Clinical Trials
Celerion is a company that conducts clinical research for pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies to determine the safety, efficacy, and potential side effects of certain medications. These clinical trials are requirements set by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the Medical Healthcare and Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA).
At Celerion, your safety and health are our utmost concern. We take the following steps (among others) to ensure that each clinical trial is safe.
- The FDA and MHRA review all new medications before releasing them for clinical trials to ensure that participants will be safe.
- Next, the medication is reviewed by the Institutional Review Board (IRB) or a Research Ethics Committee (REC). These organizations ensure that the trial will be conducted in a way that protects the participants' rights and welfare.
- Physicians and scientists at Celerion review the study with participant safety in mind.
- Participants are given an Informed Consent Form and review the clinical trial's procedures with a Celerion representative.
- Participants must provide their detailed medical history and undergo a complete physical examination to protect their health.
- Every single study is conducted under medical supervision from qualified medical professionals.
By taking these extensive steps, you can remain confident that we've taken the measures necessary to prioritize each participant's health and rights.
How Many Studies Can Someone Participate in At a Time?
Because of our commitment to your health and well-being, we only allow individuals to participate in one study at a time. Typically, after a study, participants are required to wait 30 days before beginning another clinical trial. Some trials may require a 90-day waiting period (or "pharmaceutical wash-out," as we like to call it). This ensures that your health is never compromised. So, if you're wondering how to make money as a college student, but primarily advancing medical research, it's best to sign up for one of Celerion's clinical trials.
How to get Qualified for a Study With Celerion
Each clinical trial has certain qualifications that must be met, unique to each trial. Generally, participants must meet the following requirements:
- Provide an Acceptable Address. It must be a permanent address that is registered with the postal service.
- Provide an Acceptable Phone Number. Your phone number must be valid in order to receive information and confirm appointments.
- Meet Certain Health Criteria. Celerion requires participants to be in good health, meet medical safety guidelines, and shouldn't be taking medications.
When you sign up for a clinical trial, you may be asked to meet more specific criteria that relate to the medication at hand. We'll give you the information you need to ensure that you're healthy and informed every step of the way.
