Sample collection from healthy volunteers to improve test accuracy
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

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 takes small blood samples to learn how the immune system works in healthy people. It may help researchers better understand immune biology for future treatments, while you help by participating in regular research blood draws.
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.
This study collects blood, urine, stool, and other samples from healthy people to help researchers learn more about diseases and develop better treatments. If you join, you might donate samples like blood or, in some cases, bone marrow or skin, depending on your health and the study's needs.
This study creates a storage bank of biological samples like blood, stool, and tissue. Researchers will use these samples to learn how the body interacts with the natural microbes that live in and on us, which may help improve treatments for many diseases.
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.
