<p><em><strong><strong>Navigating capacity and consent challenges to support inclusion in research: key lessons from CONSULT</strong></strong></em></p><p>This 90-minute workshop explores the ethical and practical challenges of including adults who lack capacity to consent in clinical trials. The session will be delivered by Dr Victoria Shepherd, Principal Research Fellow and registered nurse based in the Centre for Trials Research, Cardiff University who leads methodological research aimed at improving the inclusion of under-served populations in research, particularly in settings where traditional informed consent processes may be difficult.</p><p>Drawing on extensive experience in clinical trials and methodological research, the workshop will present learning from CONSULT, a NIHR Advanced Fellowship project, funded by Health and Care Research Wales that developed and tested a decision-support tool to help family members or legal representatives decide whether adults who lack the capacity to consent should take part in research. The session will also highlight current guidance, tools and methodological approaches developed to support researchers working with populations who may have impaired capacity to consent.</p><p>The workshop is suitable for <strong><strong>PhD and postgraduate students, research staff and clinical trial recruiters, study principal investigators, and anyone with a broader interest in improving inclusion in clinical trials</strong></strong>.</p><h2>Date &amp; time</h2><p>30th June, 10:00 - 11:30</p><h2>Location</h2><p><a href="https://www.pavilion.ie/" title="https://www.pavilion.ie/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">The Pavilion</a>, University of Limerick</p><h2>Speaker</h2><p><a href="https://profiles.cardiff.ac.uk/staff/shepherdvl1" title="https://profiles.cardiff.ac.uk/staff/shepherdvl1" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Dr Victoria Shepherd</a>, Cardiff University</p>
