International Clinical Trials Day will be celebrated around the world on 20 May 2013, marking the anniversary of what is regarded as the first clinical trial, carried out by James Lind in 1747.
The day aims to raise awareness of the importance of research to healthcare and highlights how partnerships between patients and healthcare practitioners are vital to high-quality, relevant research studies.
As part of celebrations for International Clinical Trials Day, NISCHR CRC has launched a new video aimed at researchers in Wales. It describes the support we can offer, with real-life examples of the way this support has made a difference to researchers.
Head to our NISCHR CRC YouTube Channel to watch the video.
