About

Part 1Who writes this

Eligiara started with an observation from a volunteer reader: the hardest sentence in a study listing is the one that says who it is for.

The lessons are short and organized like a school unit, each with a plain summary and a few questions to bring to a doctor or study team.

Part 2What we leave out

We will not tell you which study to choose, steer you to a research site, or pass your information on. Our job is to explain, not to recruit.

Eligiara is published by The Nelson M Group LLC. It is an educational website only. We are not a medical provider, a research sponsor, a study site or a recruiter.

Part 3Our sources and checks

Every guide is written by the Eligiara editorial team at The Nelson M Group LLC from general, widely shared guidance, such as public resources from the National Institutes of Health and the FDA, plus the patient-education pages of university medical centers. Each guide shows the month it was last reviewed, and we revisit them at least once a year.

If a guide seems off, tell us at [email protected] (subject: “Correction”). When our summary and your own paperwork differ, your paperwork is right.
