I made a commitment to participate in research and here is why.

Right now I am participating in two medical research studies, a case study, one behavioral health study, and a focus group for the fundraising search field.
Participating in disease research, whether with an intervention or not, is a way of paying it forward.
While I personally might not derive benefit, the coming generations may have improved treatment and drugs, better outcomes, and potentially even cures for diseases.
It’s about
· reinforcing the scientific process that advances our knowledge.
· supporting early-career physicians, researchers, and fellows.
· Being an optimist in the face of challenges.

For my profession in nonprofit leadership, strategy, and fundraising,
participating in focus groups helps to improve our work, create a dialogue between different types of professionals, and improve best practices.

Now You: Do you participate in research studies? What is your why?
