Taking Part in VA Research
Because VA research is focused on health conditions that Veterans experience, Veterans are the usual participants in VA research. Non-Veterans with the same health conditions as Veterans, however, such as stroke or brain injuries, can also participate in some VA studies, and that can be one way to thank Veterans for their service.
See more information about taking part in VA Research at these VA web pages:
