Professor Dame Anna Dominiczak speaking at an event, alongside the quote: "International Clinical Trials Day recognises the importance of clinical research to improving and transforming healthcare and celebrates the vital role that patients and the public can make through their participation in research. I encourage people in Scotland to get involved — stepping forward could make a significant difference to the health and care of tomorrow." The NHS Research Scotland logo is visible, alongside the URL www.nrs.org.uk.
#ICTD25 is an important date for reiterating that while research is helping to shape a modern health and care system, nothing can be achieved without a diverse group of volunteers. #BePartOfResearch @uofgregiusanna.bsky.social
