There are a number of challenges with patient recruitment and patient studies tend to be more challenging. In particular, these are some of common challenges:

- Unique markets
- Patients not being MR friendly, e.g. old
Recruitment strategy needs to put patient needs first:
- Choosing the right methodology
- Increasing participation by being transparent, showing empathy and fostering trust
- Verification process
This webinar will explore some effective ways to locate patients for research:
- Determining feasibility and eligibility criteria
- Recruitment via qualitative fieldwork agencies and using online panels
- Social media recruitment
- Recruitment through referrals using HCPs or Patient Associations
