Getting the word out about a resource is not easy! No one wants to create something that could help people, only to have it sitting passively on a website. That's why the Clinical Research Glossary team at the Multi-Regional Clinical Trials Center of Brigham and Women's Hospital and Harvard (MRCT Center) is hosting another webinar on June 4th at 11 AM ET focused on: - lots of different ways that organizations across the research ecosystem have taken action to implement the Clinical Research Glossary; - inviting people from different communities and backgrounds to share their feedback on new Clinical Research Glossary definitions in June. I'll be joined by Sophia Zilber 🌺, Amy Mirabella PhD, RN, CHPN, Claudine Moore, and Holly Parker, all sharing their experiences. Clear communication about clinical research helps build industry trustworthiness and challenges misconceptions about science. Please join us and share, to help grow the glossary, and reach more people, organizations, and companies with this resource. You can register here:

🌍✨ Celebrating International Clinical Trials Day! ✨🌍 On May 20th, we honor the vital role clinical trials play in advancing medical research and improving global health. This day marks the anniversary of the first clinical trial conducted by James Lind in 1747, which laid the foundation for modern clinical research. Clinical trials are essential for developing new treatments, improving existing therapies, and ensuring patient safety. They are the bridge between scientific discovery and real-world medical practice. Without the dedication of researchers, healthcare professionals, and especially the brave participants, medical advancements would not be possible. Here's why clinical trials matter: 🔬 Innovation: They drive the development of new and more effective treatments. 💊 Safety: Rigorous testing ensures that new therapies are safe for patient use. 📊 Data: Provide critical data that leads to evidence-based medical practices. 👥 Participation: Volunteers help bring new treatments to those who need them most. A heartfelt thank you to everyone involved in clinical trials: Researchers: Your relentless pursuit of knowledge saves lives. Healthcare professionals: Your dedication ensures trials are conducted ethically and safely. Participants: Your courage and altruism make new treatments possible. Let's continue to support and participate in clinical trials to pave the way for a healthier future for all. #ClinicalTrialsDay #MedicalResearch #Innovation #GlobalHealth #ClinicalTrials #HealthcareHeroes #ResearchAndDevelopment

On this World Clinical Trials Day, we reflect on the pioneering spirit that drives clinical research and its profound impact on advancing medicine and improving lives. Today marks the anniversary of what is considered to be the first randomized clinical trial, conducted by James Lind in 1747 aboard HMS Salisbury. He not only found a cure for scurvy but also established the principles of clinical research that have saved countless lives since. As we commemorate this day, we recognize the visionary spirit that underpins the clinical research community and are proud of the essential “bench to bedside” role Nucleus Network plays in bridging the gap between innovative laboratory discoveries and tangible patient treatments. May 20 is a day to celebrate the progress we’ve made and the future we’re shaping. It’s a reflection of the tireless efforts of clinical research professionals and their commitment to advancing healthcare, serving as a reminder of the importance of clinical trials in achieving that goal. It is also a day to honor the incredible dedication of volunteers who are instrumental in this journey. Their commitment provides researchers with invaluable data, helping to uncover new treatments and improve healthcare for all. We are profoundly thankful for their selfless participation, which accelerates medical progress. Together, let’s honor the past, celebrate the present, and look forward to a future where clinical trials continue to bring forth life-changing discoveries. #WorldClinicalTrialsDay #ClinicalTrials #Biopharma #phase1trials #medicalinnovation

Today, we commemorate World Clinical Trials Day, a day dedicated to recognising the critical role clinical trials play in advancing medical research and improving patient care. This day marks the anniversary of the first-ever clinical trial conducted by James Lind on May 20, 1747. 🔬 A Glimpse into History: On this day in 1747, Scottish physician James Lind conducted what is considered the first controlled clinical trial aboard a ship suffering from scurvy. Lind's innovative approach and dedication to scientific rigor laid the foundation for modern clinical trials. Key Milestones in Clinical Trials History: 1747: James Lind's scurvy trial demonstrates the importance of controlled experiments. 1940s: Randomised controlled trials (RCTs) emerge, setting the gold standard for clinical research. 1964: The Declaration of Helsinki establishes ethical guidelines for conducting medical research. 1990s: The rise of global clinical trials fosters international collaboration in medical research. Present Day: Advances in technology and methodology continue to evolve, enhancing the efficiency and effectiveness of clinical trials. As we reflect on the history and progress of clinical trials, let's celebrate the collective efforts that drive medical advancements and continue to strive for a healthier future. 🌍 #WorldClinicalTrialsDay #ClinicalTrialsHistory #MedicalResearch #InnovationInHealthcare #JamesLind #ThankYou

We didn’t win but it is nice to still present what we’ve achieved. Our abstract was accepted as a poster at the New Zealand & Australian Rheumatology Association Scientific Meeting and we were able to present it last week in Christchurch. I wanted a 15 minute live presentation but unfortunately missed out again. Could be my writing skills but I also think it’s because we aren’t presenting research. Medical conferences are typically very evidenced based and innovation at times can take a backwards seat. Saying that, I’m glad Sarah Comensoli suggested we still present a poster. She did a great job and so did Love Dayne Kidlat for bringing it altogether. I’m proud of what we’ve achieved with BJC Connect (bjcconnect.com.au), our online platform for education and patient support that helps many of our patients with their conditions in between their routine clinical consultations. Our achievements to date: -       7300 members -       +75 NPS (net promoter score) You’ll also see Robyn Yin and Belinda Prince lending their support. Often, we were forget to pat ourselves on the back. Actually, just writing that sentence makes me feel a little awkward. This post is good practice. It’s on my wellbeing list after “deep breathing” and “slowing down” 😅 Lastly, any tips for me when it comes to submitting conference abstracts, apart from “go do the research” or “go to non-clinical conferences”? 😁

On May 20th, we are honoring 🎉 International Clinical Trials Day, a day dedicated to raising awareness 📢 and recognizing the tireless efforts of everyone involved in clinical trials. This date pays tribute to one of the first randomized clinical trials, initiated on the same day in 1747 by James Lind (1716–1794). Representing 10 statistical associations across Europe, we at #EFSPI are committed to maintaining professional statistical standards, especially in the context of clinical trials and their methodologies. Quantitative decision-making is an integral part of clinical trials, but the quality of the analysis and interpretation of the evidence are directly tied to the quality of the data. Healthcare professionals, researchers, and all staff at clinical trial facilities work tirelessly each day to gather and provide high-quality data that meets the objectives set out in the clinical trial protocol. Their role is fundamental in the process, often undertaken in demanding circumstances. We also want to acknowledge the patients who participate in these trials. Their trust, courage and resilience are vital to the progression of medical science. Their participation in clinical trials paves the way for improved treatments and therapies, ultimately enhancing patient care worldwide. We invite you to take a moment to reflect on the importance of clinical trials and express your gratitude for those who dedicate their days to this important work. Their contributions are key to improving patient outcomes. 🙏 #ClinicalTrialsDay #collaboration #gratitude
