How to Include People with a Learning Disability in Research. A Clinical Trial Example

As part of a project called “No Research About Us Without Us: Removing Research Barriers for People with Learning Disabilities” we examined a clinical trial against a checklist to assess how inclusive the trial was for people with a learning disability and what lessons could be learned for future trials to improve their accessibility. We wrote a journal article about what actions trial teams can take to improve how they design and run their trial. This easy read guide explains what a clinical trials is, what we found and what we wrote in our journal article.
