“We are delighted to have a Scientific Committee of international
experts, co-chaired by Professor Deborah Ashby and Professor Peter
Langhorne, working on the conference programme. We will spotlight
work at the leading edge of methodology research, showing how this
can be applied in the routine practice of trials in health and social care.
We are proud to be in Glasgow, the city that hosted the 2014
Commonwealth Games, and well known for its willingness to do the
"heavy lifting" needed to achieve success. We will draw on this
inspiration in preparing the scientific and social aspects of the
conference and look forward to welcoming hundreds of delegates to
Glasgow, Scotland and the north”.

The Delegates- 2013 detail
The Programme
Over 600 delegates joined us in Edinburgh in 2013, from across the UK
and Europe, in addition to international delegates from the US, South
Korea, Japan, Nigeria, Uganda and Australia.
Draft programme and approximate session times
Overall, the 2013 conference met, or exceeded the expectations of 95%
of delegates. 96% said they would attend a future clinical trials
methodology conference in the UK.
“I came home inspired, full of ideas of how my
research can contribute more and full of snippets of
information that I will share with colleagues about
research methods.”
2013 delegate
