Webinar: Health Literacy and Human Research Protections: How the IRB Can Make Research More Understa

When:  Jan 13, 2022 from 01:00 AM to 02:15 AM (ET)
Patients, participants, and their caregivers should be provided with understandable research information. IRBs can play an important role in ensuring participant-facing documents include health literacy concepts. The Multi-Regional Clinical Trials Center (MRCT Center) of Brigham and Women’s Hospital and Harvard has developed several resources to raise awareness of, and build competency in, the use of health literacy best practices. In this session the speaker will provide an overview of health literacy and provide practical examples of how health literacy can be championed by IRBs.
