For participants
Your health. Your voice. Your choice. Rasai Research is a local clinical trial site in Jackson Heights, Queens, led by physician and staff who live and work in this community. We believe research should be easy to understand, grounded in respect, and open to everyone.
🧠 What Are Clinical Trials?
Clinical trials test new medicines and treatments to make sure they are safe and effective. By joining, you help doctors and researchers learn more, while receiving close health monitoring and support.
Participation is always voluntary, and every step is explained in plain language before you decide anything.
🌍 Why It Matters
New treatments need diverse participation in research for approval
Many communities—especially Asian, South Asian, and immigrant groups—are underrepresented in clinical research
Joining a trial means helping future generations, while possibly receiving more information about your health through exam, blood work, and other tests
Rasai Research is committed to making trials more accessible, respectful, and representative
