💬 "Medication can actually work in different ways on different people. So that's why it's really important that we have such a wide variety of people taking part in research."

As we start the new year, Dr Elango Sathiyamoorthy, a GP at Bute House Medical Centre in Luton, is encouraging people from all backgrounds to take part in research.

Through Be Part of Research, you can find and take part in research into nearly every major health condition - as well as social care research.
