Issue 12 Marks 2 Years Of Our Insider's Insights

It is 2 years since we started sharing our Insider's Insights with you. We have now written and shared 12 issues on subjects ranging from clinical study report writing to designing professional posters. We hope these have been of value to you. More issues are in the pipeline - including articles on making killer slide presentations, avoiding plagiarism and navigating the EU Clinical Trial Application process. We hope to make back issues available on our website shortly (www.niche.org.uk). Let us know if there is a subject you would be interested to read about in future issues.

It is our hope that the current guide will direct you on how to best use a 'concept' document during protocol development to make it easier for all parties to focus on the important points relating to the study. It takes you through the basics and provides techniques on achieving stakeholder buy-in to ensure the efficient development of a full protocol.

The guide was written by our Head of Clinical Project Management, Karen Chalk, who has over 10 years of project management experience designing and operationalizing clinical studies.
For the last 5 years, Karen has been responsible for managing our in-house quality management system that ensures we meet with all our regulatory commitments.
