Description:
The Clinical Trials Education Program fosters increased awareness of, knowledge of, and enrollment in clinical trials. Program components include twenty different multimedia educational resources, including train-the-trainer workbooks, patient and physician brochures (in English and Spanish), PowerPoint slides (in English and Spanish), patient videos, and a CD encompassing our materials. We also have an online course for health care professionals interested in learning about clinical trials and how to incorporate them into their practice. To view our resources, go to http://www.cancer.gov/clinicaltrials/learning/clinical-trials-education-series.
Partnering Opportunities:
OESI has worked with more than 170 partners--including cancer centers, patient service organizations, advocacy groups, and universities--over the past 5 years to spread the word about clinical trials. If you are interested in learning more about our program and how you might help us to increase awareness about clinical trials, particularly to the medically underserved, please contact Sona Thakkar at 301-594-8992, or e-mail .
