About this listen
Deciding whether to participate in clinical research is something more people are encountering — but it’s rarely a simple yes or no.
In this episode, we explore how people make decisions about joining clinical trials and other types of research. While many people are aware that studies exist, far fewer ever take part — raising important questions about what influences those decisions.
You’ll hear how factors like trust, clear information, practical logistics, and personal motivations all come into play. From understanding risks and time commitments to thinking about potential benefits or contributing to future care, participation decisions often involve weighing multiple considerations at once.
Dr. Tara Moroz is joined by Wes Michael, President & Founder, Rare Patient Voice, LLC, for a grounded conversation about how patients and care partners think through these choices in real life.
By the end of this episode, you’ll have a clearer understanding of how people approach research participation — and what matters when deciding whether it feels right for you.
