Who do we need to join our research community and help us with our research?

We need healthy people who do not take any regular medications and meet BMI (body mass index) and weight criteria. Participants need to be able to stay overnight at our research facility and attend clinic visits.

What our clinical trial participants have to say

As a nursing student, I am interested in medical research. I find doing studies at NZCR is like a paid holiday. I can come in do my trial and not worry about anything else – the cooking, the dishes all get done for me! I feel very safe and well cared for by the medical team at NZCR

"Hi I’m Alex, I have done quite a few studies at NZCR. I have found the nurses and doctors to be professional and caring. The facilities themselves to be comfortable, the lounge area providing a nice place to relax. The food portions have been very large and delicious. It's a great way to support my studying without having to take out a student loan."

Alex

This my 2nd trial and it’s a long one (16 days). The hardest part is maybe getting a needle in my arm for a blood test. Otherwise, its like a retreat. I have a lot of time for study, reading & light exercise. I am fed well and enjoy talking and the nurses or other participants.
