A research study is done to scientifically answer a question on diseases, treatments or patients. It involves participants who voluntarily collect data and share it with researchers to power the study. Research studies are essential to improve healthcare as they allow to better understand the causes of a particular disease, develop new cures and improve the condition of patients.
