Am I able to enroll in this research endeavor?
"This clinical trial is seeking 100 healthy individuals aged 18 to 64. To qualify, patients must understand the risks and sign a consent form; they cannot have any existing medical conditions or be of reproductive age without using effective contraception methods. In addition, due to radiation exposure from bronchoscopic procedures being more dangerous for younger people, as well as elder's weakened immune responses making them less likely to respond positively to treatment, this specific age range was chosen for safety reasons."
