HAPPY INTERNATIONAL CLINICAL TRIALS DAY
Congratulations to all those nominated fpr the 2012 Clinical Trials Honour Roll
 
The Clinical Trials Honour Roll is an annual event that celebrates the individuals and organisations involved in clinical trials on 20th May each year - International Clinical Trials Day.
 
This includes for example trial volunteers, investigators, study coordinators, monitors, funders, research managers, ethics committees, governance officers, suppliers, service providers, industry, community groups, patient organisations and government agencies.
 
The nomination period for 2012 has now closed (17May12).
 
Clinical trials are an important step in collecting the evidence for what treatments work, and what don't work. In 2008, more than $35 billion was spent on clinical research of investigational treatments1. Yet, the clinical research workforce is under pressure and pessimistic about the future2 and finding enough volunteers to participate in trials remains a problem3. The Clinical Trials Honour Roll aims to let the volunteers, professionals and organisations involved in clinical trials know that their efforts are valued, and INSPIRE others to consider participating in clinical trials in the future.
