About this Gateway
The conduct of randomised trials needs to become more efficient and effective if they are to lead to successful and effective patient care. To do this, the right trials need to be chosen, implemented and reported in the best way.
The HRB-TMRN is a collaborative initiative between a number of Irish and international higher education institutes and methodology centres. Its mission is to strengthen the methodology and reporting of trials in health and social care in Ireland so that they become more relevant, accessible and influential for patients and other service users, practitioners, policy makers and the public.
The HRB-TMRN is actively involved in primary trial methodology research projects, and also directly funds network members to carry out studies within a trial (SWATs), which are specifically related to improving the conduct, analysis, reporting and dissemination of randomised trials. The network also expands its research portfolio by developing new collaborations to strengthen grant applications, and is named in several grants as a research support infrastructure, where primary trial methodology has been embedded.
This Gateway highlights HRB-TMRN funded outputs that have been published on the platform and welcomes a range of different article types, particularly in the area of trial methodology. Please contact hrb-tmrn@nuigalway.ie or info@hrbopenresearch.org for further information.
