Without the involvement of the volunteers or human participants the trials are not possible to be conducted. And then the data are collected to measure the effectiveness of the new medication under investigation. Researchers with the help of computer models, analyze the data collected and finds , how drugs work on human subjects. This provides a clear picture of both the benefits and side effects.

So for any research human participation is very necessary and on the other hand, the participation is also beneficial for the participants.

Human participation in clinical trials helps scientific research to improve

Researches on new medications or treatment after going through the pre-clinical and animal tests need to go through the clinical trials to ensure safety and efficacy for the use of human beings.
