About the service

Our Sona participant recruitment platform streamlines the process of finding eligible volunteers for behavioral and imaging studies at BrainWorks. Open to participants from across Connecticut, the platform primarily recruits adults, with planned expansion to teen participants in the future. Participants complete safety prescreening and a one-on-one onboarding session to confirm eligibility.

Available to Yale researchers only
