Children, teens & newborns

Pediatric research, explained

Research that includes children is held to especially careful standards. These studies look for better, gentler ways to support kids' health — always with a parent or guardian involved every step of the way.

What taking part can look like

A care team experienced with children, who explain everything to you and your child.

Study-related check-ups and assessments at no cost, scheduled around your family.

Helping build treatments that are actually tested for kids, not just adults.
