Educational Materials

These popular educational materials provide a clear, easy-to-understand introduction to participation for the new and prospective volunteer. Written in straightforward language for a lay audience, educational brochures provide the groundwork for further exploration of patient questions and concerns. Targeted versions for minority readers use cultural sensitivity and ethno-medical values and beliefs to address the special interests of African-American and Hispanic readers. Translations into 26 languages with country specific resources are now available for those conducting global trials. In 2008, CISCRP introduced a placebo brochure for use by the general public. Our newest publication is sensitively directed to parents who are considering whether their children should participate in clinical trials. Companies report that these brochures ease the informed consent process and provide credibility for specific trials since the general educational component comes from a nonprofit organization.
