What’s involved
Taking part in a clinical study at Nucleus Network can involve a combination of in-clinic stays, follow-up visits, and phone calls. For each study, we clearly plan your schedule and explain it to you well before your first visit.
While each study schedule is different, our approach to supporting participants remains the same.
Throughout your experience, our team of experts, nurses, medical officers, project managers, and support staff will support you, with your safety and wellbeing front of mind.
When arriving at our Melbourne inpatient clinic to take part in a clinical study, you’ll head to level 5 to check-in. From there, our team will confirm your details and talk you through what comes next.
