The 4th LSHTM Trials Day
The 4th LSHTM Trials Day provides a platform for sharing knowledge, best practices and the latest discoveries in the field of randomized controlled trials.
Better Trials. Better Evidence. Better Health.
Join us on Tuesday 27 October 2026 in Harare, Zimbabwe, and online for the 4th LSHTM Trials Day.

Through keynote presentations, scientific talks, panel discussions and poster sessions, participants will share lessons learned, foster new collaborations and contribute to strengthening clinical trials that generate high-quality evidence for better health outcomes.
