From Idea to Impact: Your Partner in Clinical Research That Matters
The BEready study, led by the Multidisciplinary Center for Infectious Diseases (MCID), enrolled a random sample of households in the canton of Bern to generate longitudinal data on circulating infectious diseases and support early detection of emerging infectious risks.
​
The Department of Clinical Research (DCR) study nursing team successfully coordinated large-scale field operations, enrolling 1,569 households, 2'157 participants, and 217 animals. This represents a major operational achievement in community-based data collection.
​
The DCR Data Management and Statistics Teams are now continuing the critical work of data cleaning, validation, and preparation for downstream analyses.
Divisions marked red have supported the trial.
