Assayva

Clinical trial information, in plain language

Screening day, explained before you get there.

Assayva covers the part of research people rarely hear about: the screening visit, the tests behind a study’s eligibility rules, and the long list of procedures on a listing. Information only, and never medical advice.

01The screening visitBefore anyone starts a study, the team usually checks whether the study is a fit. That check is called screening, and it is often its own visit.Bench note 1 · 6 min02The procedures tableMany study documents include a grid with visits across the top and procedures down the side. It looks like a spreadsheet for a tax form, but it is readable once you know the pattern.Bench note 2 · 7 min03Biomarkers in plain wordsThe word biomarker sounds technical, but it just means something that can be measured and that stands in for something researchers care about.Bench note 3 · 5 min
