Clinical trials & Research study recruitment
You want to be involved in clinical trials or research study?
Across Australia, research studies and clinical trials are underway to better understand post‑viral infection diseases, and you can help by participating in survey questionnaires, donating your time, and providing blood samples for different studies.
Participation is voluntary, and all research is conducted under strict ethical and safety standards. Please contact the clinical trial coordinator for more information. By joining a trial, you can help improve outcomes for others facing similar challenges.
Do you still have ongoing symptoms after COVID-19?
Our study aims to explore the impact of ongoing symptoms following COVID-19, often known as Long-COVID or post-COVID condition, in people who have not fully recovered after their initial infection. Some people keep having symptoms for weeks or even years after a COVID-19 infection. Common symptoms include tiredness, trouble thinking clearly (“brain fog”), shortness of breath, and trouble sleeping, but there are many others. Current understanding and support for these groups are limited. We want to understand how Long-COVID affect people over time, including changes in physical health, mood, daily activities, work, and overall quality of life.
We invite individuals who have experienced ongoing symptoms after COVID-19 for more than four weeks to complete the screening questionnaire.
If you are eligible and interested, you will be invited to complete a survey about the impacts of Long-COVID at seven time points over two years, which are as follows: Day 1 (the day you start the survey), Day 7, Month 3, Month 6, Month 12, Month 18 and Month 24. If you take part in the study, you will receive a Coles-Myer gift card (up to $100 per year) as a token of our appreciation for your valuable contribution.
If you are interested in taking part, please scan the QR code on the study flyer to complete the Screening Questionnaire.
If you have any questions, please email longcovidstudy@rmit.edu.au.
Want to help advance COVID-19 and PASC research?
As part of our Long COVID-19 research, we are seeking help from our community to contribute to our biobank of blood samples. We are currently recruiting volunteers to donate blood after infections or vaccinations, or without infection or vaccination. The only requirements to participate are being over 18 years old and able to give blood.

Help with a Survey from people who DON’T have Long COVID
This study will ask you questions about your physical and mental health, as well as your participation in daily life. There are several surveys included in the study which will take 30-40 minutes in total to complete. The surveys in this study use everyday language and many have also been used in other research studies.

Do MicroRNAs Regulate Platelet Activation and Metabolic Dysfunction in Women with ME/CFS or Long COVID?
We’re looking for women volunteers to help us with a research study about Myalgic Encephalomyelitis,/ Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS) and Long COVID. Our goal is to study tiny molecules in your blood called microRNAs. These molecules can turn genes on or off and may be involved in how your immune system and energy levels work. We’re especially interested in platelets—cells that help with blood clotting and inflammation—and how they may behave differently in people with ME/CFS or Long COVID.

Gut therapy to improve Long COVID Outcomes and Wellbeing
A team of Deakin researchers invite you to take part in a project that is aiming to test the feasibility of a clinical trial protocol of enema-delivered faecal microbiome transplantation (FMT) in adults living with Long COVID. This is a novel treatment option for those suffering from Long COVID.
