Dr Emma Law - How We Ensure Safety in Dementia Drug Trials

Dr Emma Law, narrating her blog written for the Dementia Researcher website. Clinical trials in dementia rely on carefully designed safeguards to protect participants and ensure treatments are tested responsibly. Emma Law explains how safety is built into every stage of a trial, from ethical recruitment and consent to screening processes, monitoring, and staff training. In this blog Emma highlights how lessons from past trial failures shaped current best practice and emphasises the shared responsibility between researchers, participants, carers, and sponsors to ensure studies run safely while advancing new treatments.   Find the original text, and narration here on our website. https://www.dementiaresearcher.nihr.ac.uk/blog-how-we-ensure-safety-in-dementia-drug-trials/ #DementiaResearch #ClinicalTrials #Research #TrialDelivery -- Dr Emma Law is Strategic Manager for the The Neuroprogressive and Dementia Network in Scotland.
