In this podcast, you will hear a discussion from the 2019 Clinical Research as a Care Option (CRAACO) conference on Effectively Democratizing Access to Clinical Trials. This panel covers how making clinical research a care option is the ultimate opening of access to clinical trials. Including points on:

Current state of affairs: Gross underrepresentation of minorities 5-6% are represented in trials, but it should be closer to 40%
What are the barriers to opening access?
How can we educate underserved communities about clinical research?
What are we doing to overcome this?
Does offering these care options enhance access in a broad sense?

Moderated by:
