Video encourages patients to participate in diabetes trial

14 November 2012 · Listed under Metabolic Experimental Medicine

A new video from the Diabetes Trials Unit (DTU) at the Oxford Centre for Diabetes, Endocrinology and Metabolism (OCDEM) is being launched today, on World Diabetes Day.

Produced with local film company Nice Tree Films and funding from the NIHR Biomedical Research Centre in Oxford, the video features DTU Deputy Director Dr Angelyn Bethel and research nurse Sarah White encouraging people to take part in clinical trials and get involved with research at OCDEM.

The video also features Cindy Brown, who took part in one of DTU’s research studies after reading an article appealing for participants in the Oxford Mail. She describes her experience, why she took part, and encourages others to do the same.
