TDS-410A: (RE)SEARCH FOR HEALTH (DM)

THE (RE)SEARCH FOR INCLUSIVE HEALTHCARE in partnership with Cedars-Sinai Research Clinical trials are a wide range of research studies used by researchers and hospitals to better understand how to improve health outcomes. Diverse and representative participation in clinical trials is key to developing equitable health recommendations, policies and treatments. Cedars-Sinai Research Center for Health Equity wants to encourage more participation in clinical trials from all communities, especially those in the Latinx and Korean communities. This studio challenges design students to create strong messaging, materials and distribution systems to help community-based healthcare providers, advocates and leaders spread the word on what different types of clinical trials are, why they are important and why folks from all communities should participate. This course is eligible for the Designmatters Minor in Social Innovation.
