Clinical trials are critical to advancing lifesaving medications and treatments. But the U.S. is falling woefully short in making sure that these trials represent the broader population. In this episode, we speak with STAT cancer reporter Angus Chen, who recently went to Richmond, Va., to report on the efforts of physician Robert Winn, who connects with the local community, fosters relationships, and educates folk about clinical trials. Researcher Jonathan Jackson tells us about the barriers to achieving more diverse clinical trials and what needs to be done to topple them.
