Be Reflected in Clinical Research

A community-centered collective building trust, access, and representation in clinical research.

About Reflections

The Reflections Collective is an independent, community-centered collective working to ensure clinical research is more inclusive, accessible, and grounded in trust. Launched in Atlanta in 2024, Reflections brings together advocacy organizations, research sites, community partners, communication specialists, and sponsors around a shared goal: helping research better reflect the people it serves.

Clinical trials can open the door to new treatments and support important medical progress, but too often, many people do not see themselves or their communities reflected in research. Reflections helps change that by showing up in community spaces, creating opportunities for dialogue, answering questions and connecting people to clear, transparent ways to learn more, find support, and explore trial participation.

Whether you are living with a health condition, caring for a loved one, looking for answers, supporting patients, or building trust in your community, there is a place for you within Reflections.

Voices Shaping Reflections

Reflections is a result of our clinical research community coming together in a non-competitive way to challenge the status quo.

Sarah McKeown-Cannon SVP, Heartbeat Clinical Research

Science alone will not meet patients' needs. We must deliberately include the multitude of factors that influence impact and outcomes.

Monique Adams Global Head of Diversity in Clinical Trials, Sanofi

Each bottle in the Future Pharmacy exhibit felt like the tip of the iceberg of a very personal and moving story. Standing there made me feel less alone and less scared about what my own body might be facing.
