Learning Objectives Think clinical trials are only for academic centers? Think again. This session gives you a practical roadmap to bring research into private and community-based neurology practices. Learn the foundational steps to set up your infrastructure, engage sponsors, select the right trials, and seamlessly integrate research into your clinical workflows. We’ll share real-world examples and proven tools to overcome common hurdles like staffing, compliance, and patient recruitment. Designed to close a critical resource gap, this session empowers non-academic neurologists to expand access to trials and advance health equity through inclusive research. If you’ve ever wondered how to make research part of your practice, this is your chance to find out.
