The National Institute on Aging (NIA) Intramural Research Program (IRP) has a number ofiRB
approved research studies involving human subjects, both normal volunteers and patients. As a
means of identifying interested volunteers and other participants in the research process,
this screening mechanism is established to identif'y potential eligible participants for NlA
protocols.

To participate, volunteers/patients must meet the specific requirements of at least one of
the available NlA research studies; this protocol serves as a first step for admitting
volunteers/patients to an appropriate approved protocol and creating a contact database for
approved NlA studies.

This protocol will facilitate their recruitment into NIA approved studies and provide NlA
staff the opportunity to examine subjects where diagnostic observations can be documented and
evaluated for research potential.

The screening protocol is designed to evaluate volunteers/patients for participation in IRB
approved clinical studies of the National Institute on Aging (NIA). An additional purpose of
this protocol is to develop a registry of individuals who have been evaluated through the NIA
Clinical Research Unit screening clinic. To participate, volunteers/patients must meet the
specific requirements of at least one of the available NIA research studies. This protocol
serves as a first step for admitting volunteers/patients to an appropriate approved protocol,
and it is used to develop a registry of individuals who meet eligibility criteria for
existing research projects.
