  • Tailoring research to address the different age groups, paediatric patients, and elderly patients, to ensure optimal treatment outcomes across diverse populations.
  • Designing and developing improved clinical trials to address diverse populations and expanding the scope to incorporate broader representation of patients from EU, including efforts to match control groups, thus advancing trial efficiency and equity in treatment access.

    Please note that canSERV does not provide the actual funding for conducting clinical trials, users can apply for expert advice and support for planning and designing complex clinical trials
