NIHR Blog: Why study registration is important for the future of research

Sometimes the simplest of ideas are the most important. However, sometimes they can be deceptively simple. Study registration is one of those.

Health-related research doesn’t just happen in one country, in one institution. It happens where it matters, where it needs to happen, where the experts are, where patients and the public are. It is a collective endeavor where wonderful things emerge from a complicated and sometimes complex web of different ideas, funders, research institutes, and people. Wonderful though that is, it does present us with a problem: how do we know what has been done and who is doing what in such a global and messy system? Study registration is part of the answer.
