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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be at least 3 years old and weigh at least 26 pounds (12 kg) for children, or 18 or older for adults.
- You and/or your guardian must be willing to sign a consent form and give blood or other samples for storage and future research.
- You must be willing to show proof of identity (or have your guardian do it for you).
- For a skin biopsy (adults only): no allergies to numbing medicine, no history of keloids, not pregnant or breastfeeding.
- For apheresis (a special blood donation, adults only): you must meet extra health checks like weight, blood counts, and heart health.

This study collects tissue or blood samples from adults (and some healthy volunteers) to help researchers learn more and plan future studies. If you qualify, your samples may be used to test new ideas related to your health or for exploratory research.
This research study collects blood, urine, and other samples from healthy volunteers to support medical research. Depending on the type of sample, you may donate blood, provide skin samples, or participate in other non-invasive procedures. Your samples help scientists understand health and develop new treatments.
This study collects and stores biological samples (like blood and cord blood) to help researchers understand what causes disease. You may be asked to provide samples during pregnancy, delivery, or from an affected person, depending on eligibility.
This study collects small samples of blood and cells from the inside of your mouth. Depending on your age, it may also collect bone marrow and skin (for research lab testing). It’s mainly about research planning and analysis rather than treating a disease.
This study looks at how your body’s immune system reacts in different tissues by collecting and storing samples for research. You might be able to join if you’re an adult and can consent, and if you don’t have certain bleeding risks that could make sample collection unsafe.
This study collects multiple types of samples (like blood, stool, saliva, and swabs) from healthy people. The goal is to optimize lab tests for future research, which may help doctors and scientists run more accurate immune-related measurements.
