  THE CLINICAL TRIAL EXPERIENCE

(For Schools, Colleges, Universities, Professional Societies and Industry)

An exciting, creative training experience that uses easy-to-perform, easy-to-understand activities to take you through a clinical trial, from start to finish; from study design to the interpretation of results.

Participants learn why good design and careful control at all stages are essential for accurate and meaningful results, principles which can be expanded and applied to any experiment.

This flexible training can be customized to suit the needs, experience and ability of your group.

In Schools & colleges, Key Stage 3, 4 & 5 students see first-hand how science is applied in a real-life work environment. Science-based careers not commonly advertised outside the pharmaceutical industry are also addressed. This training is especially useful to augment GCSE & A-Level syllabuses e.g., Clinical Trials unit of A-Level Health & Social Care and Psychology. Read more...

In Universities, understanding the clinical trial process is valuable for undergraduate and post-graduate students in life-sciences, human & biological sciences and pharmacy; in fact any discipline where graduates will apply their skills within a pharmaceutical or clinical/medical research environment.

The Clinical Trial Experience can be condensed into a thought-provoking and educational presentation for University clubs and societies e.g., ChemSoc, and also presented as a formal lecture/lectures as part of an undergraduate or graduate course of learning.  Read more ...

Learn more about Stuart

'Stuart is a rare individual. His ability to create sense from chaos, to distil clarity of thinking from murky waters and to impart technical knowledge in a way that makes it all seem simple, is a unique gift. His dry humour and ability to view things from a different angle, was of huge value and support to me in my role. Always challenging and thorough in his dissection, Stuart was great to work with and made meetings interesting! Put simply, he is a man many could learn from, pragmatic, human, reflective and passionate about the positive impact of what he does.'
