8th Critical Care Clinical Trialists

3CT workshop

June 1-2, 2026 | Washington, DC

Welcome to the 3CT Workshop!

We are pleased to introduce you to 8th edition of the Critical Care Clinical Trialists (3CT) Workshop, which will take place on June 1 & 2, 2026, at the Embassy of France in Washington, DC.

The 3CT Workshop aims to foster an international exchange of ideas where attendees will brainstorm on trial design, conduct, ethics and data interpretation in the critical care area. The sessions will cover domains including drugs, devices, and biomarkers in the field of intensive care.

Following the template of the CVCT Forum, the Critical Care Clinical Trialists (3CT) workshop is a high-level think-tank, with an exceptional expert faculty. It involves a limited number of attendees and includes distinguished intensivists, pulmonologists, cardiologists, emergency physicians, clinical trialists, principal investigators, patient representatives and statisticians from academia, R&D pharma, NIH, EMA, FDA and PMDA.

We are pleased to announce that for the 7th year running, the proceedings from last year’s Workshop have been accepted for publication in world leading medical journals.
