The STAR Registry was developed because investigators often have difficulty recruiting older participants. Signing up for the STAR Registry in no way obligates a person to participate in any research studies—the choice is up to the individual, and participation in any research study is voluntary.

People who are healthy, as well as those with medical conditions, are invited to be a part of the STAR Registry. For some studies, compensation is available.
