Patient engagement and retention webinar
Welcome to the 12th webinar in the Vitaccess “Keeping it real” series – this time we’ll be discussing patient engagement and retention in real-world studies.
Sam Llewellyn, Senior Consultant, Dr Mark Larkin, CEO and Founder of Vitaccess, and special guest Tom Smith, Life Sciences Public Engagement Specialist, will discuss examples of real-world studies where patient retention strategies have been used, resulting in strong engagement.
Suitable for all evidence generation stakeholders, we will share 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. The speakers will also cover details of how to measure engagement and the multitude of benefits it brings to a study. Join us to find out more.
