Promotional Materials

We have developed the following materials to connect individuals to ClinicalResearchTrials.nih.gov. You will find things like resources for grantees, which can be personalized by following the instructions on the poster webpage.

Infographics

This one-page guide describes different kinds of clinical studies. It explains why researchers might use them and highlights each type’s strengths and weaknesses. We hope this guide can serve as a useful resource, whether you’re describing the results of a study to the public or the design of a trial to a potential participant.

“Why do researchers do different kinds of clinical studies?” | en español

Different types of clinical studies are used in different circumstances. Depending on what is known and what isn’t, scientists may even study the same research question using different kinds of studies and in different groups of people.

Posters

Help Get the Word Out! You can help raise public awareness of clinical trials by displaying these posters in your clinic or hospital. They were specifically designed for this NIH clinical research initiative and are the result of extensive testing through focus groups, in-depth interviews, and online surveys. We encourage you to use them in your clinics, waiting and exam rooms, labs, public spaces, and other areas. You may downloaded these posters for free and print them on a standard office printer or use a commercial printer.

Flyers

You can help raise public awareness of clinical trials by distributing this 3x9 inch flyer in your clinic or hospital. Simply download the flyer and have your commercial printer print and trim them to size. The downloaded file contains two duplicate flyers on a page.

“Feeling Better. Brought to You by Clinical Trials.” Flyer

“We feel better today because of what clinical trials uncovered years ago. Be part of tomorrow’s medical breakthroughs by talking to your doctor about clinical trials, their risks, and whether one is right for you. Clinical trials — consider the possibilities.”
