Inspire's Research Roundup
Research Roundup brings together research opportunities currently open on Inspire, all in one place. By participating in research, members help advance science and give researchers a clearer understanding of what it's really like to live with different health conditions.

Your experiences can help inform future care, treatments, and support for others.
What to Expect
Every research study is different. Some focus on evaluating treatments, while others aim to better understand symptoms, daily experiences, or quality of life. Because of that, each study has its own purpose and eligibility requirements. Not every opportunity will be the right fit — and that's okay.

Study Type Descriptions

Treatment Trials

Studies that test new medicines or treatments to see if they are safe and effective. Participants may receive a study treatment and attend scheduled visits.

Observational/Survey Studies

Studies that collect information about health experiences through surveys or record review. Medical care does not change.

Interview Studies

Research conversations where participants share their experiences. No treatment or procedures are involved.
