Summary
This study investigates whether using agile methods—a flexible, collaborative approach—can improve how patient partners and research sites work together during a large diabetes trial. Researchers will compare sites using agile engagement with those using standard methods, measuring effects on recruitment, medication adherence, and participant retention. The goal is to see if better engagement leads to better research outcomes.

- What this could lead to
- If agile methods improve engagement, this could lead to more efficient and collaborative multi-site clinical trials.
