2017 Event Recap
Cambridge Healthtech Institute's 2017 Clinical Trial Innovation Summit brought together more than 250 leaders from across pharma, biotech and academia to share case studies and best practices on effective clinical trial management and vendor oversight. The program focused on key issues and opportunities in the clinical trial industry, including patient recruitment, site selection, data integration, existing data sources, mobile tech, project management, outsourcing, vendor management, budgeting and contracting, quality (QbD) in trial conduct, risk-based monitoring and clinical auditing. A special thank you to the speaking faculty, attendees, sponsors and exhibitors who came together to brainstorm, discuss real-world experiences and ultimately advance clinical trials.
