Sam Llewellyn, Senior Consultant, and Dr Mark Larkin, CEO and Founder of Vitaccess, presented examples of real-world studies where patient retention strategies have been used, resulting in strong engagement.

Suitable for all evidence generation stakeholders, they shared evidence-based recommendations for how patient input, gathered through meaningful patient engagement, can be identified and incorporated into the design and implementation of real-world research to reflect patients’ lived experience.

They also covered details of how to measure engagement and the multitude of benefits it brings to a study.

Joining us to provide additional perspective on patient engagement and retention was special guest Tom Smith, Life Sciences Public Engagement Specialist.
