FIRE-UP PD II

Project: Research project

Project Details

Description

This study will take place in eight movement and disorder clinics around the United States. Four clinics will develop individual plans to raise awareness of the PPMI study to underrepresented patients and fellow neurologists. These will be compared to four clinics who simply display PPMI study materials in waiting rooms, which is often how clinical studies are advertised. After a six-month period, the four clinics with individual plans will be compared to one another, as well as to the four clinics who only displayed information in waiting rooms. Researchers will be looking at site-level and participant-level characteristics to enable broader generalizability of best practices for diverse, representative, inclusive engagement and recruitment to PD.
