The EU-project ECRAN (European Communication on Research Awareness Needs) aims to make understanding clinical trials - a relevant element of medical research - easy, and tells you all about taking part in them.

Within this ECRAN-project a cartoon has been created to show the most important facts about clinical trials. The five-minute movie imparts knowledge about history, organization, development and realization of clinical trials in simple language.

The film is available in many languages: http://www.ecranproject.eu/en/content/sail-along-james-lind
