Research
Your health data is powerful.
By sharing your health data with researchers, you can help unlock new treatments, discover insights into how conditions are managed, and accelerate progress toward better care for everyone.
You make this possible.
The information you choose to share—like your daily experiences, health history, and wearable data—helps create a richer, more complete picture of health than researchers have ever had before.
You are always in control.
You decide what data to share, and you can change your choices at any time. Your privacy is our priority. You can participate from anywhere in the U.S., whenever it works best for you.
The data you share is coded before it’s shared with research partners. This means your name, email, and other personal details are removed—so researchers never see information that identifies you directly.
Your time and participation is valuable.
Because your contributions matter, we provide fair compensation that reflects your participation in this research. Whenever possible, we’ll also share back insights from this research with you and other participants.
Join us in shaping the future of health by becoming part of the Evidation Everyone Research Registry. Together, we can turn personal experiences into discoveries that improve lives worldwide.
Giving back: How to find opportunities to participate in medical studies
At Evidation, we're here to support you as you work to become the healthiest version of yourself. When you choose to share your health data with us, we analyze your daily actions and use them to provide you with content-based insights that can help you make the best health decisions for your needs. In addition to providing you with information to support your health, we also—with your permission—use the data we gather to support health research.
Clinical research vs. medical studies: what's the difference?
Sometimes, the terms clinical research and medical studies are used interchangeably. While both terms fall under the umbrella of health research, they have different meanings and purposes.
Clinical research works to explore new treatments, interventions, and medical devices. Often, clinical trials require human participants to determine the safety and side effects of potential new treatments.
Medical research with Evidation
At Evidation, we're committed to contributing to medical research. In 2024, Evidation Members completed 4.5 million research surveys, and thousands participated in medical studies including FluSmart2024, MigraineSmart, and the BARDA Study.
Here's how:
Step one: determine eligibility. After you download the Evidation app, you'll notice opportunities to participate in health studies or programs.
Step two: learn about the study. If you're determined eligible and are asked to participate in the study, you'll have all the information you need to make a comfortable decision.
Step three: participate. Most studies don't require you to use devices beyond your phone.
Why participation matters
When you participate in medical studies, you help explore how different variables affect various facets of health. The information you provide can help improve the quality of life of others.
Your privacy: how Evidation protects your data
Your privacy is our top priority, and our security team is dedicated to keeping your data as secure as possible. You choose what data to share and have the right to revoke sharing at any time.

GCP principles focus on protecting participants and ensuring the quality of research data collected.
