      The research that I am involved in is at an early pre-clinical stage and I am not involved in clinical trials on humans. If the chemicals that I work on seem promising in my experiments they are sent to other scientists in different laboratories for further testing. There are many years of research that a drug must go through before it even reaches the stage of human clinical trials. Hope this answers your question, let me know if not.
