I've worked with many patients hoping to join a clinical trial but not able to find one. The search for a trial can be incredibly urgent, as it is for cancer patients. @HealthWalletApp makes it easy to find and join #clinicaltrials. When #clinicalresearch works well, we all win.

[Health Wallet @HealthWalletApp]

Receiving a cancer diagnosis can be a life-changing experience with many new challenges. Too often, finding the right clinical trial has been one of them. Health Wallet is changing this by helping #cancer patients find and join the right #clinicaltrials.

People know sleep is important, but many don't know #sleep is a whole field of medicine with clinical researchers working to improve #sleephealth for everyone. My #clinicalresearch career started in sleep & I'm pleased to spotlight @EileenBLeary in this @HealthWalletApp profile.

Clinical researchers work hard every day to help us live longer, healthier lives. Take a minute to meet one of these researchers, @EileenBLeary, in our latest "Meet a Researcher" profile. https://t.co/Mv129WpCvA

Because #clinicalresearch is advancing so rapidly, its regulation can get very complex. We rely on #regulatoryaffairs teams to help #clinicaltrials run safely, ethically, and efficiently. Learn more over at @HealthWalletApp's latest spotlight featuring Ayesha Fraser:

How do we protect ourselves against a rapidly mutating #COVID virus? Effective & equitable #clinicalresearch is our best defense & I explain why in this op-ed. The key is ensuring that research participants reflect the #diversity of all of our communities. https://t.co/RUgf9hV3mi

Loved this Q&A with Dr. Montgomery Rice @MSMPres of @MSMEDU. One insight: to help everyone reach their optimal health, we need to help people, especially people of color, participate in #clinicalresearch. This is exactly why @HealthWalletApp exists.

When I used to talk with parents to see if my #clinicaltrial was a good fit for their kid, I'd hear they spent dozens of hours trying to find their options before finding me. This led me to create @HealthWalletApp, so anyone can quickly find the right trial for their loved one.

[Health Wallet @HealthWalletApp]

It's hard enough being a parent, and especially hard when your child needs special medical treatment. Health Wallet saves you precious time by making it easy to find the right #pediatric #clinicalstudies.

[Tom Rico Pamukcu @TomPamukcu]

Having spent my career in #raredisease research, I know there are too many people who are waiting for new treatments. Often #clinicaltrials are their best or even only option. So I’m excited that now rare disease patients can use @HealthWalletApp to find new treatments.

[Health Wallet @HealthWalletApp]

Rare diseases aren’t as rare as you might think, affecting 1 in 10 Americans. Health Wallet is proud to help people with #rarediseases connect with the right #clinicalstudies for them.

[Tom Rico Pamukcu @TomPamukcu]

I'm so pleased to feature some amazing clinical researchers in @HealthWalletApp's "Meet a Researcher" series. Learn more about the people hard at work bringing us new medicines and check out today's profile on medical writer Yael Symes.

Friends & family often come to me for help sifting through thousands & thousands of clinical trials to find the right option for themselves or a loved one. I am always happy to help, but it shouldn't have to be that hard. Making things easier is why I founded Health Wallet.

[Health Wallet @HealthWalletApp]

Did you know there are thousands of #clinicaltrials all over the country that are currently recruiting participants? Health Wallet makes these trials easily searchable so that you can find the best options for you. Create a free account today!

After slowing early in the pandemic, #clinicaltrials for cancer are speeding up. More trials are now launching & more participants are joining. If you're interested in clinical trials for cancer, or any other condition, see your options at Health Wallet.

https://t.co/ZQrnC7UBhE

[Health Wallet @HealthWalletApp]

Women often have a double burden of caretaking and paid work that makes it hard to participate in traditional #clinicaltrials. But the good news is, #decentralizedtrials are becoming more common, offering the chance to participate from home. #healthequity

https://t.co/ugdPj2w89y

[Health Wallet @HealthWalletApp]

A new study of Black cancer patients shows that Black participants are overwhelmingly interested in joining #clinicaltrials but are not offered the opportunity. Health Wallet helps ensure everyone has access to #clinicalresearch.

[Health Wallet @HealthWalletApp]

In a medical breakthrough, a clinical trial resulted in all 14 #coloncancer patients going into remission. Hearing directly from the trial participants about what this means to them, we’re reminded how powerful and life-changing #clinicalresearch can be.

[Health Wallet @HealthWalletApp]

Many await a #COVID vaccine for children under five. Thanks to families enrolling their children in #clinicaltrials, we are that much closer to a vaccine for all. If you're interested in pediatric clinical trials, Health Wallet can show you your options.

https://t.co/eiaJl9s8ji

[Tom Rico Pamukcu @TomPamukcu]

Having worked on pediatric cancer clinical trials, I’ve seen firsthand how life-changing it can be to connect parents and their children with the right trial for them. I have so much admiration for these brave families helping to make a better tomorrow for young cancer patients.

[Health Wallet @HealthWalletApp]

Participating in #clinicaltrials can open the door to a more hopeful future not just for you, but for others like you. We are inspired by families like the Halls, who enrolled young Reece in a pediatric brain cancer trial.

In observation of #clinicaltrialsday last week, Health Wallet gives thanks to all the incredible clinical researchers and participants making the future of medicine possible. We are grateful to play a role in helping people live longer and healthier lives. #CTD2022 #ICTD2022

[Tom Rico Pamukcu @TomPamukcu]

Lack of diversity in clinical research is an urgent problem that will require all of us in the field working together to solve. If you're in the clinical research field, let's chat about how Health Wallet can help you improve representation in your studies.

[Health Wallet @HealthWalletApp]

Lack of #diversity in #clinicalresearch is harmful and costly, says @theNASEM. But the good news is people from all walks of life would participate in #clinicaltrials if given the opportunity. We make finding the right trial easy. https://t.co/d8AHyV8phV
