Since becoming a UNC student I have been invited to join about 15 different medical studies. I get at least 2 emails per week asking me to take part in some type of medical study. This week it was the hearing and acne studies. Last week it was ” Fluoxetine in Autism” and “Muscle and Jaw Function”. If I were living on campus, I would be able to pay for all of my tuition, books and whatever else just by participating in these studies. I don’t think I feel comfortable with being in a population that is studied this much.
