Dr Peter Connelly - Two Worlds of Clinical Trials

Dr Peter Connelly - Two Worlds of Clinical Trials

Dr Peter Connelly narrates his blog written for Dementia Researcher.

In this blog, Peter compares academically led and commercially sponsored clinical trials, outlining how they differ in goals, recruitment expectations, intensity, monitoring and funding. Drawing on personal experience, he highlights unrealistic recruitment projections, contrasts study cultures, and reflects on the professional rewards and pressures associated with each model. The blog offers practical insight for clinicians considering participation in dementia research.
