Following on from our first round of podcasts that evolved from the recommendations in the paper; Effective delivery of Complex Innovative Design (CID) cancer trials- a consensus statement focusing on complex innovative design trials the NIHR CRN coordinating center has again collaborated with the Health Research Authority and in this series, the NIHR Office for Clinical Research Infrastructure. This time, we will be discussing some of the key learning points from the COVID-19 pandemic, such as: -
Has the recent success using innovative design and delivery of research studies during the COVID pandemic been part due to the advance of innovation in trials pre-COVID-19?
Could Continuous Improvement mean innovation in COVID-19 research inform studies post the pandemic? And how can we evidence this?
The general learnings and happenings throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, and we will be building on the further questions around the management and delivery of innovative design trials during the pandemic.
From Weds 27th January we will roll out a weekly podcast here aimed at anyone with an interest in designing, delivering or reviewing Innovation in Trail Design and Study Delivery. They are presented by experienced research professionals from across the research environment.
The research delivery infrastructure in the UK provided by the NIHR, working closely with the NHS, regulators and stakeholders, continues to deliver unparalleled clinical research activity to address the COVID-19 pandemic. Agility, coordination and innovation are core attributes that are driving this impact made by our clinical research. They are also attributes that will ensure the UK can regrow the comprehensive health and social care research portfolio as soon as the harm of the COVID-19 pandemic upon health and social care is overcome. Drawing upon proven research infrastructure and our culture of continuous improvement from recent experience (such as those shared in this podcast series) provides this platform for future success.
