An opportunity to learn more about clinical trials registers and how to search them effectively - Trial Registers, Trials Results Registers and Other Research Registers: Challenges and Opportunities (21 Nov 2012)

Increasing national and international interest in identifying, recording and promoting access to healthcare trials and their results has seen the development of large numbers of trials registers, and more recently, results registers.  Trials registers provide information on current and recently completed research and results registers provide information on completed research.  This type of information is useful for research commissioning, health technology assessments, systematic reviews and product development.

Trials registers, results registers and other research registers are developing quickly and provide challenges in terms of identification, efficient searching and record management.  This one day training course will highlight the background to the development of trial registers and trials results registers, will discuss the types of registers and their relative coverage, and will offer practical advice on searching registers and managing register records. 

This one day course will be held at the University of York, UK. Further details: http://php.york.ac.uk/inst/yhec/web/training/index.php
