What can I expect during a study?

The idea of being part of a research study may seem intidimating at first, but rest assured, it can be a rewarding and fun experience. It helps to ask lots of questions about the study expectations before giving consent to participate and as well, throughout the entire study.  Also know that if you are ever feeling uncomfortable, you can always talk to our study coordinators and it is your right to withdraw from the study at any time.  Be sure to watch our Participating in HNRU Research Video to see what the experience is like in the HNRU!
