NIHR launches new Clinical Trials Toolkit for researchers
| Description: | The National Institute for Health Research (NIHR) announces the launch of the new Clinical Trials (CT) Toolkit website. This innovative website is designed to help researchers navigate through the complex landscape of setting up and managing clinical trials in line with regulatory requirements. Based on the design of a tube map, the CT Toolkit uses an interactive colour-coded routemap to differentiate between legal and good practice requirements. This provides essential information at the 'stations' along the route and gives the users an idea of the critical path for trial set-up and delivery. |
