Each year, the number of cases of tick-borne diseases increases. Researchers at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Lyme Disease Studies Unit is looking for healthy volunteers to participate in a research study to learn more about how the human immune system responds to tick bites.

Researchers at the National Cancer Institute (NCI) are conducting a clinical trial to study new imaging techniques for those with HCC. Pictures (Images) are taken with a positron emission tomography (PET) using a new investigational imaging radiotracer, 18 F-DCFPyL. Our research study focus is to see if this tracer will improve images taken of your liver to identify HCC tumors earlier in the disease process. We will also determine if we can see differences between treated tumors and the development of new tumors.

Researchers at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) seek healthy volunteers to provide blood samples for research studies of blood vessels and immune diseases that cause clotting. In this study, investigators want to understand the basis of these diseases to facilitate the development of better treatments.

The National Institutes of Health (NIH) researchers are enrolling adult volunteers in a study investigating the role of Vitamin C in red blood cells of patients with type 2 diabetes. Findings may help improve future treatment and care of people with diabetes.

The National Institutes of Health (NIH) is conducting a research study of the causes and responses to treating multiple sclerosis (MS) and other brain and spine inflammatory conditions. Join this study if you have MS or a related disease. Although the study does not offer treatment options, your participation may help in future discoveries and inspire hope.

Doctors at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) are looking for women, between the age of 18-42 years old for a research study investigating recurrent implantation failure, early pregnancy loss, recurrent pregnancy loss. Researchers want to look at the uterine lining, called the endometrium, to understand its role in implantation and miscarriage.

Heart disease is the leading cause of death and disability in the United States. Omega-7 fatty acids are found in the oil extracted from certain fish and nuts like macadamia. Palmitoleic acid is one of the most common omega-7 fatty acids. Many studies suggest that this oil is good for heart health. Researchers at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) want to find out more about these potential benefits.

Researchers at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) are testing NX-2127, an oral drug that degrades a protein in cancer cells called Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK), instead of inhibiting or blocking it like other drugs. NX-2127 may also stimulate your immune T-cells to attack the cancer.

Researchers at the National Institutes of Health's (NIH) Clinical Center are looking for adult volunteers for a study on whether an aerobic exercise program benefits survivors of COVID-19. (En español)

Investigadores del Centro Clínico de los Institutos Nacionales de la Salud (NIH, por sus siglas en inglés) buscan voluntarios para un estudio que investiga si un programa de ejercicios aeróbicos puede beneficiar a los sobrevivientes de COVID-19.
