Have you ever thought about how clinical trials affect the environment?

I hadn’t, until I spoke with Annie Wright, a first-year PhD student at Imperial College who is passionate about greener research. In this episode, we uncover how clinical trials contribute to climate change, from travel emissions to operational inefficiencies. We dive into practical actions statisticians and researchers can take to reduce the carbon footprint of trials, like adopting decentralized approaches and streamlining study designs.

Join us as we explore how to transform clinical research into a more sustainable practice while still delivering valuable scientific outcomes.
