New tool facilitates clinical trial follow-up


 

References

Patients who participate in clinical trials may now receive notification of published results with a new tool developed by researchers at NIH and Columbia University. This service sends an email to study participants when an article with results of the trial has been published. The service is called “ArticlesAboutMe.” Patients or caregivers may sign up online to receive the email notification. (http://articlesaboutme.org/)
