Improving diversity in clinical trials is both an ethical obligation and a scientific necessity. The current lack of diversity presents a challenge in understanding how novel therapies perform across different population subgroups, hindering progress in reducing disparities and achieving equity. Despite growing awareness of the importance of including diverse patient populations in clinical research, there is still much work to be done to increase representation of racial and minority ethnic groups in clinical trials.

DGE invites you to attend its 2nd Diversity in Clinical Trials Summit, taking place May 10-11, 2023 in Philadelphia, PA. No other event provides as much in-depth learning and networking aimed at reducing barriers and enabling diverse representation in clinical trials.

This year’s agenda features all-new topics requested by attendees just like YOU!
