Clinical and translational research cannot occur without volunteers. Connecting volunteers with researchers is often the most limiting factor for moving research discoveries to the community. UMB has joined ResearchMatch, a network of over 150 institutions across the United States dedicated to advancing discovery and health for communities now and for future generations.
Currently, more than 8,000 volunteers — within a 50-mile radius of UMB — are registered in ResearchMatch.
Learn more about using this tool. Register for one of the monthly ResearchMatch webinars offered the second Thursday of every month at 3 p.m.
