New drug development requires major investment in capital, human resources and technical expertise. Strict adherence to regulations on testing and manufacturing standards is also required before a new drug can be marketed. One of the greatest challenges in conducting clinical trials is that of efficiency. As trials become more comprehensive, involving large numbers of participants globally, their duration is prolonged and costs increase. The longer trials last, the shorter is the patent life remaining after market approval and the longer patients must wait for the new product. This short course covers the key components of clinical trials and how these requirements interact with the drug development cycle.
For individuals who are not accounting specialists, the budgeting process can be a mysterious and frightening experience. This course seeks to dispel the myths and misunderstandings around budgeting by describing the process and its significance in simple terms.

I particularly like the detailed tips provided throughout the course about how best to practice. I have learned so much today and found it very insightful, educational and in particular the research stats too. I felt engaged throughout and greatly appreciate this opportunity and look forward to many more to come. Very insightful learning, it has increased my understanding of how to facilitate therapeutic process to address symptoms of PTSD. Much appreciated. I’m new to this as I’m a Counselling Student and found it extremely interesting and useful.
Informed consent in clinical research is an ethical and regulatory requirement. A research subject must enter a study voluntarily, be informed about risks and benefits, and understand the difference between investigation and treatment. Subjects must not be coerced into enrolment, nor must they be enticed by exaggerated claims of benefit. Before they can enrol, all potential subjects must agree, in writing, to participate. In addition to ethical and regulatory imperatives, the potential for litigation by subjects further highlights the importance of rigorous adherence to informed consent principles. In this short course we set out the principles and requirements and provide examples of practical issues confronting healthcare professionals and subjects.
Welcome to the world of unschooling where you say YES to your child's choices, how they want to spend their time, facilitating what they want to learn about and accommodating their needs. Are you listening to your children's requests and wondering if maybe you are spoiling them? or where there is room for you and the things that you want to do? and how to balance the needs of multiple children? Do you have children that have more energy than you have to give? Or have grand ideas about what they want to do? And what about those children for whom the word NO initiates a really strong response? This webinar is going to explore the ideas of principles vs rules, arbitrary and non arbitrary boundaries, and how to create the YES environment that you can build for your child to thrive. This webinar is FREE to LPL Monthly Members. You can sign up and receive a recorded version of this event, access to previous webinars, a private community and more here: https://ko-fi.com/liveplaylearn/tiers

Prevention of contamination is one of the most important goals of GMP. Contamination of product is often difficult to detect, so GMP rules emphasise preventive measures, including: attention to personal health and hygiene, and the wearing of special clothing, by staff; and cleaning and sanitation of premises and equipment. In this short course we set out the basics of GMP requirements in these vital areas.
Analytical statistical elements are essential concepts in the design of clinical trials. This analysis helps us to understand whether a conclusion from a study of a sample of the target population applies generally to that population as a whole. In particular, it helps us to answer the question: Did the treatment effect in the given study occur just by chance? The statistical elements of a well-controlled study minimise the chances of drawing the wrong conclusions, by providing clear thresholds for such errors. The basic statistical elements of a clinical trial include eligibility criteria, randomisation, sample size, power, and blinding, and these are discussed in this short course.
The demands on quality from clinical trials are increasing. Quantitative aspects of clinical trials, such as the mass of study data to be collected, the multiple investigational sites, and the need to meet predetermined timelines, often supersede qualitative features. Therefore, addressing basic requirements for quality management is essential when preparing a clinical trial. This short course describes the core elements required for the establishment of a clinical trial and provides an overview of the role of the sponsor in supporting and improving trial quality.
