Clinical Trials Plus+ Project

It all begins with an idea. Our idea is turning all the “talk” about clinical trial diversity into measurable outcomes after new drugs or medical devices are approved by the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) and brought to market, thereby ensuring marginalized communities can actually access the products.

Ask yourself this question:

What good is a new product developed with diverse clinical trial participants if consumers have inequitable access to the drug or medical device?
