Amish/Mennonite Research Contact Registry

Research Contact Registry for Members of the Amish and Mennonite Communities

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 29 Jan 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The purpose of this registry is to find members of the Plain Community who are interested in participating in future medical research studies. Having a registry makes it easier to contact and offer study participation to individuals who are appropriate for a new research study based on their own and their family medical history. Studies will focus on increasing knowledge about disorders affecting those who are Amish and Mennonite.
