This workshop on November 2 at the Gerontological Society of America’s preconference will focus on the pragmatic clinical trial as an exemplar of an innovative research design that can foster the performance of trials in real world settings, with representative patient populations, and outcome measures that “matter most” to patients and caregivers. Leaders of funded projects will describe how they applied pragmatic trial principles in study design and implementation. The advantages and challenges of conducting pragmatic clinical trials with diverse populations of older adults, including those living with Alzheimer’s disease and Alzheimer’s disease related dementias (AD/ADRD), will be discussed. Registration is open to RCMAR Faculty and Scientists (current and alumni).

Registration closed.
