Ha!
Can a "Caucasian" offer herself/himself up for this trial, or does it have to be boss-approved?  |

Sounds like there's recreational drugs involved
This is bound to be asked: can someone with an E-2 sign up? |

Stay away from these tests here or in any country.
First, they'll make you sign a waiver that protects them from any liability.
After that, they can do whatever they like to you and any harm that comes from it will be your problem.
PS- I'm not sure why they want only Caucasians??????
Our DNA is no different than theirs. I've never seen a clinical drug study in the US asking for blacks, or asians specifically. weird stuff. |

| Sounds like they're trying to find out if fan death only works on Koreans. |

There are certain diseases that are much more prevalent in certain races. Sickle cell anemia in black males is common, as is cancer. I don't remember which one, but black men have a much higher incidence of either prostate or testicular cancer. (Although I'm not black, there is a strong black medical outreach program in my home community, and I watch a lot of TV...) I'm sure there are plenty of diseases/conditions that affect only Caucasians/Asians/Hispanics/etc. |

I used to do 'tests' like these back home during University. They paid in cash and it was all tax free. It paid for some nice vacations, I can tell you.
You can get exposed to some pretty rough stuff which can give you severe side effects, but if the trials are only 2 or 4 days then it's not going to be anything too bad. Some company might want to bring out a new painkiller or something like that.
Easy money on offer there! |

| The University in my hometown is constantly advertising for volunteers, you usually have to be a guy, or a woman who is no longer fertile. |

Too bad the first screening is on a Monday during working hours. Also it's in Seoul.  I wonder if I could send my F-3 husband to something like this if it were local.
