Trial Finder Tools: Increasing Access to Clinical Trial Information [November 7, 2023]
The Health Research Alliance (HRA) Clinical Trials Interest Group hosted a presentation from the Alzheimer’s Association about TrialMatch, an online tool that helps users find information about clinical trials for which they may qualify. We learned about how the TrialMatch tool fits into other patient engagement efforts, how the tool was developed, and how it is being implemented and evaluated. The presentation was followed by time for Q&A and discussion.

Q&A and Discussion Moderated by Michelle McLeod, Director, Osteoarthritis Clinical Research Programs, Arthritis Foundation
