In addition to two hands-on, board-certified psychiatrists, we maintain a full-time staff of research professionals with extensive experience in clinical trials, including clilnical research coordinators, cognitive testing staff, dedicated regulatory and quality assurance staff, and medical assistants. Psychiatrists conduct all patient ratings and are available to patients and staff at all times.

Patient Demographics:

The studies we conduct are usually for participants over 18 years old.

Potential participants need to be local, ie. live in the Las Vegas area. 

Altea Research does not generally do 'healthy volulnteer' studies. This means in order to be eligible for a study, a participant needs to have the specific condition for the study, but a previous diagnosis is not necessarily required.
