Improving the Understanding of Informed Consent Among Vulnerable Populations

As efforts are made to enroll more diverse people in clinical trials, including those who are considered vulnerable from among minority populations and the elderly, those for whom English is a second language, and/or those from lower social economic backgrounds, their understanding of informed consent forms (ICFs) and the entire informed consent process becomes ever more important to the successful conduct of research.

This live webinar will address practical ways that stakeholders in research can help improve the creation of ICFs and better the overall process to ensure patients have a fuller understanding of the risks, commitment, and cost of agreeing to participate in a clinical trial.
