Why We Need Your Help

Medical breakthroughs wouldn’t be possible without the generosity of research volunteers. Every new treatment, therapy, or medical discovery starts with people like you—individuals willing to contribute to scientific progress. By joining ReproRegistry, you can play a direct role in advancing healthcare and improving the lives of future patients.

ReproRegistry - volunteer recruitment

When you volunteer for medical research, you provide scientists with essential data and biological samples—such as biopsies or blood donations—that are critical for testing new treatments. These materials help researchers understand diseases, evaluate the effectiveness of new drugs, and develop safer, more targeted therapies. Without volunteers, medical advancements would come to a standstill.

Why Medical Research is Important

Medical research helps us increase our knowledge about human biology, health and wellbeing.

Every minute in the UK, someone is diagnosed with a disease or condition. The treatments and care they receive today exist because of past medical research and discoveries.

Whether it is testing a new medicine, a new surgical procedure, a new diagnostic test, a type of scan, or moving to a healthier lifestyle choice to help prevent disease, everyone has an important role to play- if they choose to.

Medical research helps us to:

  • provide life changing treatments
  • diagnose disease earlier and with improved accuracy
  • prevent disease development and spread
  • ensure that everyone has a better quality of life
  • improve health for the generations to come

Essentially, research aims to find out whether what is being tested is better than what is currently available or provide a treatment option where none exists.

Clinicians and researchers already know a great deal, but there are still many questions that need answers. Your help is crucial in allowing researchers to meet these aims.

Why Human Tissue is Needed

Human tissue is essential for advancing medical research and drug discovery. Unlike animal models, human tissue provides researchers with accurate and reliable insights into how new treatments will work in the human body. This research is critical for understanding drug safety, effectiveness, and potential side effects, all of which are vital to developing successful therapies.

To facilitate this crucial work, we’ve established our research volunteer database, ReproRegistry. This platform connects individuals—both healthy and those with specific medical conditions—with clinical studies that are working to drive forward the next generation of medical treatments. By joining our database, volunteers help ensure that researchers have access to the high-quality human tissue samples needed to continue advancing healthcare.

Our database not only supports human tissue research but also makes the volunteer recruitment process simple and transparent, ensuring that those who wish to contribute to scientific progress can do so with ease. Together, we can make significant strides in the development of life-saving treatments and improved healthcare outcomes for all.
