I was looking forward to signing up but was denied!

Many thanks for your time - unfortunately you did not meet the recruitment criteria for this trial.

Doh! I was denied too. I wonder what they're looking for?

[Syzygy]

Likewise, I don't meet their criteria.

For my area they wouldn't except any more males - but did accept females (though you'd still need to wait to see if you've been accepted).

They've probably just got preset groups and need so many from each of them, cutting off at certain points.

I too did not "meet the recruitment criteria for this trial". Great way to get free survey information. I wonder what they will do with all the info...

Broadcast it on BBC World Service.

Registration is now closed - they found 20,000 people pretty quickly.
