To say it is an interesting time to be in the clinical research field might be considered a significant understatement. Between the rapid evolution in data collection and analytical solutions, dynamic changes in different technologies, and the increased adoption of the decentralized clinical trial format (catalyzed in part by the pandemic), there is a lot to keep on top of and learn.
During Outsourcing-Pharma’s upcoming webinar on Clinical Development Advances, a group of well-respected industry professionals will be offering insights on all these changes—and how to stay informed about putting these advances to work in your operation.
