Description

Growing public expectations and the new factor-based grant application review criteria for most research project grant activity codes significantly raise the bar for clinical trials. NIH leaders repeatedly underscore the expectation that science, especially publicly funded research, should be replicable and generalizable.

The aims of this webinar are the following:

1. to identify the most significant threats to the integrity and reproducibility of clinical trials
2. to offer the latest recommendations for prevention of serious quality defects
3. to recommend designs for reproducible, generalizable, and informative clinical research

This webinar is developed to support clinical researchers and their teams, teachers of reproducibility in research education and mentored research career development programs, research universities and institutions, industry supported researchers, and funders of research projects in life sciences.
