Please Be Honest About Your Health!
During the screening visit, you will get a full check-up. Our technicians will run labs, including a blood draw, and our medical team will examine you to assess your health condition.
Please, do not lie about your medical condition and life habits. If you do so, you will not be compensated for your screening visit.
How Will I know if I am Eligible?
After your screening visit, our medical team carefully reviews your test results to confirm your eligibility for the study. If you meet all the criteria, you will be invited to participate.
Occasionally, additional tests may be required to ensure suitability. Our screening team will call to inform you of your eligibility the day after your screening visit (or after any required follow-up bloodwork).
