Complete the survey here: https://oxford.onlinesurveys.ac.uk/research-priorities-for-covid-19 Share your study resources to support colleagues across the world Research teams working across the world are setting up COVID-19 studies. They are asking for others already running studies to share their resources including standard operating procedures (SOPs). By sharing your resources, you will help them get started faster because they will be using what we know already works, for more information and to share what you have visit: https://coronavirus.tghn.org/share-trial-sops/ Register for workshop on why we need platform trials in a pandemic and an introduction to REMAP-CAP We need to rapidly determine the best disease management strategies and what treatments work and are safe by conducting clinical trials if we are to mitigate the impact of COVID-19 during this pandemic. We also need to ask these questions during this window so can we learn and better prepare for future outbreaks. This can be done by conducting platform trials, which is a flexible, adaptive approach where different interventions can be added in or removed as new evidence becomes available. This workshop will explain why we need platform trials in a pandemic and introduce REMAP-CAP, an example of a platform trial that is taking place across the world.
