Dr Peter Connelly - When Clinical Trials Fail

Dr Peter Connelly - When Clinical Trials Fail

Dr Peter Connelly narrates his blog written for Dementia Researcher.

In this blog, Peter examines the emotional, professional, and organisational consequences of failed clinical trials. He reflects on the disappointment felt by both participants and staff, the challenges of managing expectations, and the importance of providing continued support. Drawing on practical insight, he reminds us that while not all trials lead to success, they still contribute valuable experience and learning for future studies.
