Inclusion Across the Lifespan Speaker Series

The best clinical research is generalizable to all populations affected by the condition under study. This includes people of different ages as well as a diversity of genders and racial and ethnic identities. These standards are further codified in various laws (42 USC 289a-2), guidelines (NASEM Consensus Policy Report), and NIH policies pertaining to the inclusion of women, minorities, and people across the lifespan.   

Featuring talks by scientists and clinical research professionals with expertise in engaging pediatric, adolescent, and geriatric populations, the Inclusion Across the Lifespan Speaker Series gives research teams tools and resources to effectively connect, build trust, and integrate individuals across the lifespan into their research.

Who should attend?

The series is intended for aspiring, new, and established researchers and research team members wishing to advance their knowledge of best practices for engagement with diverse populations, including working with patient and community advisory boards, implementing patient-centered design, and collaborating with community members as co-investigators.
