International Clinical Trial Day 2025 to be held in Spain
ECRIN is very pleased to announce that International Clinical Trial Day 2025 will be held on 20 May in Madrid, Spain. The 2025 edition of the annual event to commemorate the famous clinical trial conducted by James Lind in 1747 which formed the groundwork for modern-day clinical research, will be co-hosted by our Spanish national partner SCReN. 2025 will be a special edition as well, as we celebrate ICTD’s 20th anniversary. We look forward to seeing you in Madrid!
About International Clinical Trial Days
In 2005, ECRIN launched International Clinical Trials Day by ECRIN to commemorate the day when James Lind started his famous clinical trial on scurvy in 1747, May 20th, and laid the foundation for modern clinical research. Celebrated every year on or around May 20th, ICTD is an opportunity for research organisations, clinical research professionals, and the public to acknowledge the achievements that result from clinical research and to discuss various trial topics. ECRIN’s annual celebration of ICTD brings together European and international stakeholders. Given its success, the conference has been replicated by some of ECRIN’s member/observer countries, who have now introduced their own national/international ICTD celebrations.
