For the first time rural patients can access potentially life-changing new modalities via clinical trials – without having to travel.
Join multi-award-winning broadcaster and journalist, Dr Norman Swan, Professor Jenny May, the National Rural Health Commissioner, and Dr Angus Baumann, a Cardiologist based in Alice Springs, for an insightful webinar to find out more about the Australian Teletrial Program’s (ATP) mission to tackle geographical health inequity.
The ATP is revolutionising access to clinical trials for rural, regional, and remote Australians. By leveraging teletrials, ATP is bridging healthcare gaps and bringing cutting-edge research directly to patients, no matter where they live. With over 1,000 patients across RRR Australia already participating, the ATP is making a significant impact.
