Studies you may be able to join near Youngstown

These studies are recruiting through partner research networks. We may be paid a referral fee if you complete their screening form — this never changes what you pay (nothing) or the compensation the study offers you.

See which clinical studies you may qualify for

A partner research network matches volunteers with studies that are currently enrolling in the United States. You answer a few screening questions about your health and where you live; if a study looks like a fit, its team contacts you to confirm eligibility.

Screening is free and takes a few minutes. Eligibility and any compensation are confirmed by the study team, not by this site.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to be sick to join a clinical trial in Youngstown?
No. Many studies recruit healthy volunteers, especially early-phase studies run at dedicated research centers. Others need participants diagnosed with a specific condition. Every trial lists its eligibility criteria — age range, condition, medications — and the study team screens you before enrollment.
How do I join a study in Youngstown, OH?
Pick a study that matches your profile, contact the research site (or apply through the study links on this page), pass a phone pre-screen, then attend an in-person screening visit. If you qualify, you review and sign the informed consent and the study begins. The process typically takes 1-3 weeks.
Is compensation for clinical trials taxable?
In the U.S., clinical trial compensation is generally considered taxable income, and research sites may issue a 1099 form for payments above $600 in a year. Reimbursements for travel or meals are typically treated differently. Consult a tax professional for your situation.
What is the difference between a research center and a hospital study in Youngstown?
Dedicated research centers (listed on this page with their Google ratings) run studies as their core business — often healthy-volunteer and vaccine studies with structured compensation. Hospital and university studies tend to focus on patients with specific conditions. Both types are registered and IRB-supervised.
