The Studdy Buddy Scoop
When people think about participating in a medical research study, Dr. Peter Venkman sending electric shocks to a man while sparing the attractive woman during his experiment in Ghostbusters pops into their mind, painting the general perception they have about what goes on in a research study. Popular culture stigmatizes the participation in research studies through hyperbolic portrayals of mishaps and side effects. Medical research studies with no doubt have produced adverse events, including death, coercion, and institutions taking advantage of certain populations, but the protections reserved for participants through strict approvals for research carried out by Institutional Review Boards have long since created a safe environment with participant rights and appropriate protections from risk. The Studdy Buddy Scoop takes you through the magical experiences of research participation and everything it has to offer to you and the world. AJ Safi hosts guests that have participated in studies or conduct studies. Come hang out for the entertainment, and maybe you or your friends will try participating in a study and contributing to public health.
