Volunteers

Would you like to volunteer to participate in research?

Much of the research conducted at the GRC can only be done with the generous support of those people who participate in our clinical research trials. Members of the pubic can become involved in our research. By participating in research, you can help us in identifying the genes involved in high blood pressure, migraine, breast and skin cancer, diabetes, obesity, osteoporosis, multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis and chronic fatigue syndrome. Similarly, if you are a senior, you may also be able to participate in one of our trials that relates to Alzheimer’s disease and possible treatments.

 

Currently Recruiting

Concussion Research

We are currently recruiting volunteers for research on concussion. If you or someone you know would like to participate or receive further information, please contact the Clinical Trials Centre on grcclinic@qut.edu.au.

 

Lymphoma Research

The GRC is calling on the public to help build-up their numbers of volunteer samples by donating blood. We are aiming to collect around 300 NHL (Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma) cases and also 300 control samples – that is, people who have not been diagnosed with cancer. The blood donation takes only 5 minutes and will aid in our research for around the next 5-10 years. For more info and contact details for this study please click here.

If you or someone you know may be interested in participating in this research, please contact the Genomics Clinical Trials Centre on grcclinic@qut.edu.au.
