The May Cafe Scientifique will take place on Tuesday 21st May at 3.00pm when Dr Jan Kohler will give the talk entitled ‘Am I a Guinea Pig, Doctor?’
Progress in medical treatment has been made largely through well organised clinical trials, where the efficacy of a new drug or procedure is tested whilst monitoring any side effects. Jan will trace the history and development of clinical trials from Scurvy to Covid, illustrating her talk with examples from her own experience in childhood cancer.
