What we’ll ask you
These tell us how you think at the bedside and on a protocol — not just what's on your CV. Everyone also answers a few shared questions on research integrity and why this work. You answer these in your private portal after verifying your email — a reviewer reads them, and they’re never scored by a machine.
- Walk us through how you weigh participant welfare against a study's data needs when the two pull against each other. Give a real example if you can.
- A participant on an investigational botanical reports a new symptom that could be an adverse event or could be unrelated. Step by step, how do you assess, document, and escalate it?
- How do you approach informed consent with someone who is hesitant, has low health literacy, or may feel pressure to please you?
- Tell us about a protocol deviation, safety signal, or data-integrity concern you identified or escalated. What did you actually do?
- Describe your hands-on clinical-trial experience — phases, therapeutic areas, your role on the team — and the trial you're proudest of and why. (optional)
- What's your honest read on the current evidence for botanical and natural-product interventions, and how should a rigorous trial be designed to test one fairly? (optional)
