How clinical trials shape patient care
How clinical trials shape patient care
By Chris Stover The medications people take, and the guidelines doctors follow are built on evidence gathered through clinical trials. For more than 25 years, Dr. Thomas Ransom has contributed to that evidence as an endocrinologist and clinical trial investigator in Nova Scotia.Dr. Ransom has been involved in more than 200 trials over the years and says for him clinical research has never been about testing the next promising medication. It's about improving patient care.

Nova Scotia creates new game-changing pathways for medical research
Nova Scotia creates new game-changing pathways for medical research
By: Chris Stover For decades, participation in medical research in Nova Scotia often depended on timing, geography, or chance. A patient might never hear about a clinical trial because their physician wasn’t connected to research. A willing participant might never be asked because they didn’t know opportunities existed. A rare biological sample could be lost to time simply because there was no clear pathway to use it.
