Research teams encouraged to offer trial participants opportunity to feed back on their experience
5 August 2025
UCLH is looking to increase the number of trial participants filling in the Participant in Research Experience Survey (PRES) and to receive responses from a wider range of studies.
The survey, developed by the National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR), is a great way of getting feedback from participants and is open all year round.
Research staff are recommended to give participants the opportunity to feedback on their experience at a specific point on a trial or at the end of their trial, by asking them to complete the survey online.
Feedback from PRES is already helping research teams at UCLH to improve research delivery in the future and ensure a positive experience for participants. As teams have found, feedback also helps them understand what they are doing well and share these successes with staff. Responses from the ongoing survey are regularly shared with study teams to enable real-time analysis and improvements to practice.
The PRES app can be accessed on the My Research Experience website, which researchers and participants can sign into.
