The energy at last week’s Patients as Partners conference was undeniable! More than ever, there’s a growing urgency to not just include patient voices—but to empower them to help shape the future of clinical trials.
Our very own Kristin Tolbert sat on a strategic panel that tackled what true patient inclusion in clinical trials looks like—from measuring impact and easing financial burdens to building lasting trust and creating culturally relevant materials.
Key takeaways?
📢 85% of Patients want clear, accessible info.
🌍 There’s no one-size-fits-all approach to trial participation.
👨👩👧👦 Families, especially siblings, carry unseen burdens that deserve recognition.
We left feeling inspired and more motivated than ever to keep driving patient-centered progress in clinical research!
