CISCRP staff is committed to participating and presenting—speaker, chairperson, moderator, advisor roles—in relevant and engaging educational events within the clinical research industry. We hope you can attend the following conference events and meet the CISCRP team.
Kim Edwards, Madeline Heaney, and Corinne Scripps will be attending the conference.
Kim will be speaking on the panel, Patient and Site Perspective—Bridging Communication Gap on Thursday at 11:30am – 12:00pm.
Hear directly from patients, caregivers and clinical sites about their experiences accessing and understanding clinical trial information, including what works, what doesn’t and what’s missing
Explore the gap between what companies create and what patients receive, understand and use when making decisions about trial participation and staying informed throughout the research process
Gain actionable insights on how to design transparency efforts that genuinely serve patient needs rather than just meeting regulatory requirements
Kim will also be presenting on, ‘Beyond Creation to Distribution – Ensuring Patient Materials Reach and Support Their Audience’ on Friday at 1:15 – 1:45.
Explore the full journey of patient-facing materials from development to real-world access, including how organizations can ensure patients actually find, understand and use the information provided
Apply plain language and health literacy principles that strengthen clarity, trust and usability across diverse patient populations while supporting consistent communication throughout the trial lifecycle
Develop intentional and repeatable distribution strategies that incorporate data-driven insights, partnerships and measurable outcomes to demonstrate meaningful patient engagement

Annick de Bruin will be speaking on, Bridge the patient voice gap to strengthen clinical protocols on Monday at 1:15 PM – 1:35 PM.
Improve trial feasibility and recruitment outcomes by creating structured feedback loops with patients that translate real-world insights on awareness, trust, and participation experience into more accessible and better-designed protocols
Strengthen patient retention by continuously capturing and acting on patient perspectives around data transparency, AI use, and communication preferences to shape more personalized engagement strategies

Corinne Scripps, Madeline Heaney, and Shalome Sine will be attending this conference. Shalome Sine be speaking on: Reimagining the Consent Process from the Patient Perspective.
Drawing on survey findings from more than 4,400 clinical trial participants, this session explores how informed consent processes can better support patient understanding and decision-making. Attendees will examine key barriers to ICF comprehension, including document length and confusing terminology, alongside strategies for creating clearer, more patient-friendly consent experiences. The session will also highlight the benefits of eConsent and feature patient advocates sharing firsthand perspectives on how consent processes influence trial participation decisions.

Behtash Bahador will be speaking on: Retention Strategies To Keep Patients Connected.
As trials grow more complex and decentralized, sites must rethink participant engagement models. This session explores strategies to sustain participation: building staff rapport, managing retention barriers proactively, accessing tools like home care and telemedicine, and gaining sponsor or CRO support for patient needs. Learn retention success examples, key performance indicators, and how to distinguish between site-controlled retention issues and dropout due to drug-related factors (a critical distinction sponsors must recognize).

Hosted for the first time in 2026 at SCOPE Summit, we invited conference attendees to stretch and recharge while honoring the Medical Heroes that participate in research to advance medicine for all.
