Bonus Episode | Leaning in on equity in Clinical Trials
Bonus Episode of the FSR Sarc Fighter podcast. In this bonus episode of the FSR Sarc Fighter podcast -- a reminder of the fantastic progress that has been made when it comes to making it possible for people to participate in clinical trials. Thanks to the tireless work of the team at the Foundation for Sarcoidosis Research and the support of Mallinckrodt Pharmaceuticals and Boehringer-Ingelheim, it is now much easier to say "Yes" if you want to participate. Thanks to their work, participation is now covered under FMLA - meaning you can take time off from work to go to the doctor or the clinic without fear of losing your job. This is a huge win for researchers and all of us in the rare disease community. Listen also as Sarc fighter Karen Colemen tells us how sarcoidosis has slowed her dancing.
