Clinical Trials: Seeking Participants

Clinical trials are studies that evaluate new ways to prevent, detect, diagnose and treat a health condition. The following are just a few of the many departments offering clinical trials at Penn.

Reproductive Research Unit (RRU) at Penn Fertility Care

Current studies include methods of family planning, treatment for heavy bleeding, treatment for decreased sexual desire, development of microbicides, and more.
