Wiley Encyclopedia of Clinical Trials

Do you need a comprehensive resource on clinical trials? If so, the Wiley Encyclopedia of Clinical Trials, now available online, is an excellent choice. Whether you are a student writing a paper or preparing for an epidemiology class, or a researcher working on clinical trials, you will find this resource of use.

The Wiley Encyclopedia provides information on many aspects of clinical trials. The overarching topics are clinical data management, clinical fields, device trials, ethics, genetics, methodology/analysis, regulatory issues, safety/toxicity and study design (phases I though IV). As an example, the Methodology/Analysis topic is further broken down into nearly 50 sub-topics ranging from absolute risk reduction and aligned rank test to the Wei-Lin-Weissfeld Method for Multiple Times to Events.

The Wiley Encyclopedia is a great starting point for concepts relating to clinical trials, as well as a superb quick reference source. The Wiley Encyclopedia of Clinical Trials is available in full-text online format, and can be accessed from on- or off-campus locations.
