Medical research volunteers

[TOM M]

Basically i need to earn a bit of cash to afford the accomodation for my 2nd year at uni next year.
Ive heard that by volunteering to do medical research that you can earn quite a lot of money by basically being a "guinea pig" in thier experiments / trials.

Does anyone know how to get started in this as im very tempted.

Cheers
Tom

if you didn't get the gist of my post it was geared towards:

do something else...

Can't believe your even considering it, after recent events:

Apparantly all the publicity has been good for the industry - enquiries have rocketed, as greedy people tend to concentrate on the large fees, rather than the people suffering from multiple organ failure a mile and a half from where I'm sitting.

Combine drug trials with the benefits system.

"Incapacity benefit for a bad back, mate? I'll book you an appointment with a research company."

I've done them before. Got paid £3k for 21 days sat watching Sky and reading magazines.

Done other studies that involved no drugs, just sleeping. Went to work then down to the test place. Watched a film, got a take away, then back home in the morning and got paid £50 a night. A nice extra £250 a week tax free on top of my wages.

£50 a night for sleeping? Whats the catch?

Personally I think these are the unsung heroes of this day and age. Take an astronaught or a pop-star, they are commonly hitting the front page news, but the people who are actually trying to further medicine and make life better for the whole world...?

Forgotten, unless of course something goes wrong and it's a 'travesty'. Don't people realise that these people got paid one hell of a lot of money for this, that the drugs have been through as many tests as possible before they reach this stage, and that generally speaking the kind of occurance which hit the news recently was a very uncommon occurance?

Whilst I'd definately never do this I salute those who have the balls, and hope they get paid shit loads to do so - they're furthering society in a positive way unlike most of the so called 'heroes' of today which the media like to flaunt so much.

Whilst I agree,

I think the recent tragedy highlights the need for this sort of study, they obviously knew the dangers before they went into it (Although I won't be surprised if there's an inquiry to the effect that the company didn't make them fully aware like the nanny state this place is now).

Brave people, don't know if i could do it, but the money is extremely tempting.

Psychological studies also pay AFAIK and most of them don't involve drugs, just tests and observations.
