Clinical Trials Day

World Clinical Trials Day event - annually on 20 May

 CAHS presents World Clinical Trials Day Tuesday 20 May 2025, Perth Children's Hospital. Featuring presentations from CAHS researchers and 2 workshops. Register for free. For more information contact CAHS.clinicaltrials@health.wa.gov.au

Our World Clinical Trials Day event in 2025 was held on Tuesday 20 May.

To celebrate World Clinical Trials day, we invited all Child and Adolescent Health Service (CAHS) and The Kids researchers to showcase their work by hosting a stall. We invite all these researchers to join us every year.

If you are a researcher, having a stall helps you give colleagues and the public special insights into the important work you do to improve the lives of sick children and young people in Western Australia.

Stalls are public facing, on the ground floor typically in the morning.

Prospective research stall-holders are invited to register their interest closer to the event date.

The event provides fun, family-friendly educational activities including:

  • The Kids Institute discovery centre dress-ups
  • Captain Starlight face painting and colouring-in; and
  • other child-friendly crafts and games.

The day is themed around citrus - in recognition of the first known clinical trial which investigated the treatment of scurvy in the 1700s.

We typically present Clinical Trials-themed workshops and look forward to bringing these to you again in 2026.

Workshops

These provide opportunities to discuss prospective clinical trials with research experts from CAHS, The Kids Research Institute Australia and Perth Children's Hospital Foundation.
