Participate in Research Studies
Post-Deployment Research Study
Veterans who have served in the military since October 2001 or active duty military personnel may be eligible to participate in one of the studies described below. The studies examine different aspects of recent military deployment on mood, emotions, and mental and physical health of military personnel. The goal of these studies is to recognize problems early, and improve care. Veterans who experience problems or those who do not are welcome to participate. Joining this study may help other veterans in the future, especially those experiencing signs of stress. You are welcome to participate in one or both of the studies on the same day.
