Clinical trials are an essential part of the development of new medical treatments and procedures, and they help to ensure that new interventions are safe and effective for patients above all. Because of that, it is really important that all steps in that process were done with special attention to patient safety above all, but also to the accuracy of data that is often still collected manually, which slows down the entire process, and sometimes even compromises it, which result with the fact that clinical trials are exposed to frequent audits precisely for this reason.

Although clinical t

Clinical research technology platforms have also emerged, providing participant-facing apps and websites where you can build in or interface with some or all the previously mentioned solutions, as well as expanding to other research-related activities such as virtual training, electronic informed consent form (eICF), participant recruitment, engagement, visit reminders and concierges, etc. Implementing these platforms, the individual participant is given an even more active role in their own research journey, as they are responsible to enter their own subjective data directly into the designa

To bring this into reality, pharmaceutical PV organisations need to move into a “digitalised future” where technology plays a key role in PV processes. This includes automating and streamlining the information streams to reduce complexity, from case processing to reporting. Once automated, companies need to begin to look to artificial intelligence to add further value from their data.

By applying artificial intelligence (AI) and data science approaches, organisations can turn the overabundance of data from being a challenge to solve, into an opportunity. A well-designed, automated, AI-powe

Sponsors have realised the benefits of reduced oversight and contract management a complete functional service outsourcing model offers saving valuable time and resources. Depending

Bacterial infections are responsible for a wide spectrum of diseases in humans causing significant morbidity and mortality on a global scale. Bacteria can survive in two different forms: free-living planktonic form and biofilm form. Bacterial biofilms are densely packed communities of bacterial cells which are surrounded by a self-produced polymeric matrix. It is reported that over 80% of microbial infections including many chronic diseases in humans are associated with biofilm. Apart from causing havoc in the form of deadly diseases, biofilm bacteria can make medical implants malfunctional o
