Healthy volunteer studies
The tightest entry criteria on the site, which surprises people. Weight, medication, sleep and smoking all come into it, and most of the visits happen in one block.

Clinical studies, compared honestly
Find the study that fits, before you hand over anything.
Norvia Clinical Center reads the criteria a study has actually published and shows you where you fall against them — including the line you miss. Nothing about you leaves this page until you have seen that answer.
Nothing stored to look
The comparison runs in your browser. No name, no number, no account.
The criteria, not a summary
What a study published, in plain words, with the parts that rule people out kept in.
Free, and not paid by you
Research sites pay to be listed. You are never charged and never asked for card details.
Why we built it
The answer you need first is usually no
Almost every route into clinical research is built to collect you. You give your name, your number and your diagnosis, and somewhere after that a person calls to tell you the study wanted a narrower band of people than you fall into.
Norvia turns that around. The criteria come first, written out rather than summarised, and the comparison runs before anyone has your details. When the answer is no, you get it in about five minutes and you keep your afternoon.
- Criteria shown before any form
- The disqualifying line named, not hidden
- Nothing stored unless you ask us to
- No cost, ever, for any part of it
What Norvia does
Four things, and nothing you did not ask for
No account to make, no newsletter you did not choose, no call you did not expect.
Reads the criteria
A protocol's inclusion and exclusion list, rewritten in plain words with nothing taken out — especially the parts that rule people out.
Compares you to it
You answer what the study actually asks about. The comparison happens in your browser and the result is yours before it is ours.
Tells you where it runs
Distance decides more enrolments than anything clinical. You see the travel a study expects before you consider it.
Hands you over, once
If you fit and you choose to go ahead, your details go to that one research site and nowhere else. Not a list, not a panel, not a broker.
What you get
An honest answer is worth more than a hopeful one
A study you cannot join is not an opportunity, and being told so late costs weeks. Everything here is arranged so that the no arrives early and the yes arrives with the detail you need to decide.
- The exclusion that applies to you, named
- Visit schedule before you commit
- Travel distance stated up front
- What happens to your data, in one page
Written out

Areas we cover
What recruits, and what it asks of you
These are the shapes studies take in each area — the phase, the visit pattern, and the thing the criteria usually turn on. Which specific studies are open changes week to week, so the eligibility check reads that, not this page.
6Therapeutic areas, and healthy volunteers is one of them
IIPhase
Cardiology and metabolic
Usually turns on what you are already taking and whether it changed recently. A medication switch in the last three months rules more people out than anything else.

Respiratory
Several of these only recruit between autumn and spring. Lung function on the day decides it more often than your history does.

Dermatology
Severity is scored at the first visit, and the band is narrow at both ends. Being too mild rules people out as often as being too severe.

0Details asked for before you see the answer
We would rather tell you no in five minutes than take your phone number and tell you no in three weeks. A service that only ever says yes is not reading the criteria.
Questions
The things people ask before they start
If what you want to know is not here, write to us and a person will answer it. Nothing on this site is answered by a bot and there is no queue to sit in.
1 dayWhat we aim for on a reply, Monday to Friday
Does the check cost anything?
No, and there is no version of this that does. Research sites pay to be listed, which is how the service is funded. You will never be asked for card details, and any page that asks you for them is not us.
Do you store what I type into the check?
Not while you are running it. The comparison happens in your browser and nothing is sent anywhere. Details are only submitted if you reach the end, decide you want to be put forward for a specific study, and fill in the form yourself.
Will someone phone me?
Only if you give us a number and ask us to. There is no call centre behind this and nobody is paid per lead. If you tick nothing and send nothing, this site never contacts you.
What if nothing matches?
Then the check says so, in those words, rather than putting you on a list. You can turn on study-match messages if you want to hear when something opens, and that is a separate decision you make on its own.
Does being put forward mean I am in?
No. The research team decides who joins a study, after a screening visit and after you sign an informed consent document with a person in front of you. Norvia has no part in that decision and cannot influence it.
