S4E07: Representation Matters: Inclusivity in Clinical Trials Two Scientists Walk Into a Bar

    • Science

Because disease outcomes and responses to treatment can vary across populations, clinical research must include patients who are racially, ethnically and gender representative of those who experience health conditions. Scientists are pioneering new ways of achieving inclusive and diverse clinical trials to generate clear results and reveal insights when evaluating new medicines. Co-host Maria Wilson sits down with Nicole Richie, Global Head of Health Equity and Population Science, and Jenn Pangilinan, Vice President, Genentech Research and Early Development (gRED) Clinical Operations, to discuss the nuances of human biological difference and how we can take a more thoughtful approach to diversity in clinical trials. This episode is the second in a two-part series dedicated to inclusivity and diversity in research.
