We have developed the NIHR INCLUDE Socioeconomic Disadvantage Framework to support trial teams to design and conduct trials with people experiencing socioeconomic disadvantage in mind. Join us: 24th Jan, 11am-1pm GMT Sign up: bit.ly/3VtBOqg

What are you doing on 24th January 2023 at 1100? Chances are you should probably be at this MRC-NIHR Trials Methodology Research Partnership webinar led by Dr Fran Sherratt Katie Biggs & @heidirgardner. I've just signed up and looking forward to learning lots.

An insightful and thought-provoking event that drove home the importance of true inclusion in healthcare 👏🏼 It’s clear that there is still a lot to do, but it’s exciting to see the attention this topic has and the potential for real change in the future The Lancet #inclusion

I've just finalised the protocol for a scoping review I will be conducting to start off my PhD🙂To what extent does intersectionality affect health inequalities and outcomes - osf.io/vjuaw/ via Center for Open Science

Inclusivity of under-served populations in research is hugely important - we need to go further & consider intersectionality & the impact on health inequalities/outcomes. Azar Alexander-sefre is looking at this in her MRC-NIHR Trials Methodology Research Partnership PhD - details of scoping review protocol in the link

There were some great sessions today at COG UK! It’s exciting to see industry engaged with improving trial efficiency and initiatives to improve clinical trial diversity #clinicaltrials #COGUK #DiversityandInclusion

As we approach International Clinical Trials Day 2023, it's worth pausing to reflect that while many trials change lives for the better, a great many others are so methodologically weak that they simply represent research waste. jclinepi.com/article/S0895-… doi.org/10.1186/s13063…

We’re introducing a new policy that will require MRC researchers to consider diversity when designing clinical and preclinical scientific experiments. These changes aim to ensure research findings are relevant and beneficial to everyone in society: orlo.uk/yMbz4 1/

Great poster presentations from Researching Inequalities theme at Health Services Research UK conference, including Azar Alexander-sefre: Tackling health inequalities: what is the role of intersectionality in health research? Pre-recorded: youtu.be/Gms_Fan1DHA #HSRUK23 HSRU #InclusiveResearch

Intersectionality is a “buzz” word I’ve heard mentioned by many at Health Services Research UK, however it still feels like there is a long way to go to truly understand it’s impact in health services and research. My PhD work will hopefully be one small step in the right direction! #HSRUK2023

Well done to HSRU PhD students Azar Alexander-sefre Sophie Greenwood who have been presenting their PhD work in 3-minutes at University of Aberdeen PGR conference this week, not an easy task!👏

It was great to give a short overview of my project at the MRC TMRP DTP Associate Partner Symposium event today #inclusivetrials

Some of my lovely MRC TMRP DTP PhD cohort #trialsmethodology #PhD

📢One of our DTP students Azar Alexander-sefre is looking for researchers to interview as part of her PhD study. Do circulate widely and get in touch if you want to be involved.

First in our nod to Trailblazers for Be Part of Research Week is Azar Alexander-Sefre, a second-year PhD student with us MRC TMRP DTP Azar's research focuses on making trials more inclusive:

A bunch of us are running a workshop on 30th Sept at ICTMC 2024 on inclusive and diverse trials, see trialforge.org/tour-date/how-… The full ICTMC 2024 program is at inconference.eventsair.com/ictmc-2024

What a fabulous two days at our MRC-NIHR Trials Methodology Research Partnership training workshop this week. Engaging speakers and great discsussions with our DTP students, our wider student network and supervisors! Thanks to all 😀

Are you involved in clinical trial design, planning or conduct? 🔍Join our research study and share your insights on inclusion and representation in trials. We are particularly interested in speaking with men and people who belong to ethnic minority backgrounds.
