Solve puzzles, crack codes, and uncover hidden messages as you dive into our escape room based on a real-world drug trial. Can you enrol the patient before the time runs out?

Can you escape the clinic? Professor Veltkamp has had to rush off because of a patient emergency and needs your help! He wants to enrol a patient onto the PRESTIGE-AF stroke-prevention drug trial in the next 30 minutes, but the information he needs is lost in his clinic.

Solve puzzles, crack codes, and uncover hidden messages as you dive into our drug trial escape room based on real-world research. Along the way you’ll explore the science of strokes, learn how drug trials work, and find out how these trials can help doctors answer difficult questions, including the best way to treat people who have had a stroke. Can you enrol the patient before the time runs out and become an honorary investigator?
