Clearly Communicating Clinical Trials (C3T)
C3T was built to address a clear gap: the lack of health literacy integrated in clinical research and trials. Clinical trials have the potential to advance medicine and improve lives, but many studies fail to engage the people who could benefit most because the information is too complex, inaccessible, or disconnected from real-world needs. Health literacy can bridge that gap. That's where we come in.
Complex science made clear.
Through tailored health literacy strategies, we help research teams communicate more clearly, build trust, and foster meaningful participation. From study design and participant materials to consent forms, study updates, and summaries, we ensure every point in the process is understandable, relevant, and actionable.
Recruitment
Health literate recruitment materials engage everyone and encourage diverse representation
Consent
An understandable consent process is essential to true and legal informed consent
Retention
Clear data collection forms ensure accurate data – no matter if the trial is local or decentralized
Results
Patient-friendly summaries help patients understand their role and encourage future participation
Evaluation
Constant collection of insights ensures all research is grounded in the patients’ values
Communication
Staff communication strategies can facilitate meaningful participation for all involved
