Researchers are constantly looking for better or new ways for improving our lives and treating illness and disease. Clinical trials are designed to determine whether investigational drugs, devices and treatments are effective and safe for people to use. Some clinical trials may test already approved (on the market) medications or devices. Some studies use questionnaires, interviews, or other types of surveys to gather information about habits, opinions, and beliefs. Other studies observe the way people interact with one another or react to certain situations, providing new insights into human behavior. At any given time, there are hundreds of research studies going on at the University of Rochester. In fact, there are more research studies happening here than anywhere else in the region.
