Research Volunteer Identification
Increasing diversity in research
The research volunteer identification service helps investigators find, recruit and enroll groups of people who are underrepresented in biomedical research.
The research volunteer identification service helps research teams identify targeted underrepresented and underserved research participants.
The Integrating Special Populations Program's research volunteer identification service helps research teams identify targeted underrepresented and underserved research participants.
The service helps investigators plan studies and recruit and enroll participants in a way that represents regional populations proportionally by factors including:
- Age
- Sex
- Race
- Ethnicity
- Rural status
- Socioeconomic status
The research volunteer identification service provides investigative teams with lists of potentially eligible individuals based on socioeconomic status, as defined by the HOUSES index, and rural classification, as defined by the U.S. Census Bureau.
This service enables researchers to more effectively and efficiently reach special populations and meet recruiting goals.
