About the Clinical Study Journey
Meridian has created a guide that outlines the benefits of participating and what happens when you apply — read more about the study process here.No matter what you decide to do, Meridian is here to help you before, during, and after studies. After you apply at mcrmed.com/find-study, a recruitment specialist from the Meridian contact center will call you and ask a few questions about you and your medical history. This phone screening will help determine if the study is right for you. Even if one study is not a fit for you, Meridian’s recruitment specialist can help you find a more appropriate study. At this time, you’ll also be able to ask questions about the study process.
