• Description:
  Objective
  
  To examine barriers and facilitators of biomedical research participation among Hispanics in a rural community in Washington State.
  
  Methods
  
  Questionnaires addressed socio-demographics, health care access, and barriers and facilitators of participation in biomedical studies. This is a descriptive analysis of the findings.
  
  Results
  
  Barriers include the need to care for family members (82%), fear of having to pay for research treatments (74%), cultural beliefs (65%), lack of time (75%) and trust (71%), and the degree of hassle (73%). Facilitators include having a friend/relative with the disease being researched (80%) and monetary compensation (73%).
  
  Conclusion
  
  Researchers should be mindful of these facilitators and barriers when recruiting for biomedical research studies.
