Bethesda, MarylandAges 3–100 - NCT05036707RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Tick bite study in healthy adults
This study looks at how your body's immune system reacts to a tick bite. It may help doctors understand and prevent tick-borne diseases, which are illnesses spread by ticks, like Lyme disease.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–99 - NCT07867184Enrolling by invitation
Firefighter lung health study
This study looks at how firefighting affects your lungs over time. By tracking your health and exposures, researchers hope to find ways to prevent lung problems in firefighters.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–65 - NCT04864886Recruiting
Study how immune-related conditions affect metabolism
This study collects blood and other samples to see how the immune system changes “metabolism” (how your body uses energy) in people with immune-related conditions. Your samples may also be stored for future research and could help researchers better understand immune health.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–75 - NCT02190266Recruiting
Study genetics and cause of hard-to-treat Valley fever
This study looks at why “Valley fever” is difficult to treat or has spread beyond the lungs, and how a person’s genetics may be involved. You may be asked for blood or other samples for genetic testing and for storing samples for future research.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 2–100 - NCT00067054Recruiting
Collecting blood and samples for research
This study collects blood and other samples from healthy volunteers, children, and people with infectious diseases to help advance research. If you join, you may donate blood, urine, or skin samples that will be stored and used in future studies.

Testing a malaria infection in healthy adults
This study gives healthy adults who have never had malaria a controlled infection with the parasite that causes malaria, to see if it is safe and if mosquitoes can pick up the parasite from them. It may help develop new ways to prevent malaria.

What taking part in a allergy study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.
