  THE CLINICAL TRIAL EXPERIENCE FOR UNDERGRADUATES & GRADUATES

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.

Undergraduate and post-graduate students will understand why good design, careful control and good interpersonal skills are essential at all stages of a clinical trial to ensure smooth running and delivery of accurate, meaningful results.

The Clinical Trial Experience is fun and engaging, enabling students to see first-hand how subjects they learn are applied in an industry setting. They will also learn about career opportunities rarely advertised outside of the pharmaceutical industry.

Training in clinical trials as more formal lectures is also available. Content and style are tailored to each audience.

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.'
