Free Studies

None of our studies require any cost to study participants. Participants are not charged for evaluation or treatment and, in some cases, may be provided free transportation or reimbursed for transportation expenses.

Funding Sources

We acquire grants, which support all aspects of our studies, including treatment, equipment, and salaries of affiliated personnel. Some of our current funding sources include the National Institutes of Health and the American Stroke Association.

Oversight

Our studies are regulated by multiple layers of oversight. Oversight is provided by the principal investigator, the Institutional Review Board (IRB) of the University of Cincinnati, the sponsor and, ultimately, the Federal Government.
