Donor Studies projects
Why do some people become donors while others do not? Does donating cause stress for the donor? Do personality traits and behavior influence the risk of fainting? How healthy are donors? And how healthy is it to donate blood? These are some examples of research questions from our behavioral and health science researchers in the Donor Studies department.
