Medical - Medical (general) / Clinical study / law suit
Danish term or phrase: lægge krop til
I am drawing a blank here - how do you say 'lægge krop til' in English?

Det er også værd at bemærke, at de patienter, der har lagt krop til det kliniske forsøg, har gjort det for at hjælpe forskningen.

Accept the physical risks (and advantages)


Explanation:
Those who have accepted (or taken on) the physical risks and advantages...

The only other expression I can think of is ´those who have served as guinea pigs´.

It depends whether that fits with the register of your text, or is too informal.
