In this video interview, Amber Hill, PhD, founder and CEO of Research Grid, identifies the administrative back-office processes causing the most friction in Phase I trials and explains why purpose-built, traceable AI models are the right tool for addressing them.

In today's ACT Brief, we examine what actually drives the 6- to 12-month timeline reductions envisioned under Operation TrialBlazer, why trial modernization requires structural changes in sponsor-site collaboration, and a major biosimilars commercialization partnership.

In this video interview, Amber Hill, PhD, founder and CEO of Research Grid, explains what hitting the 6- to 12-month timeline reductions envisioned under Operation TrialBlazer actually demands operationally—and where AI-native automation can make the biggest difference earliest.

Faster, more efficient clinical trials depend on structural alignment in how sponsors, CROs, and research sites plan and execute studies together.

In today's ACT Brief, we examine the standardization gap that sits between raw data collection and real-time analysis, why regulatory unpredictability is pushing US biotechs to run early trials overseas, and FDA accelerated approval of a new immunomodulatory therapy.

In this Q&A, Raviv Pryluk, PhD, CEO and co-founder of PhaseV, discusses the data standardization bottleneck that sits between raw trial data and real-time analysis, what the FDA's continuous monitoring pilot will require to scale beyond large pharma, and why an ecosystem approach is the only path to making real-time trial oversight a practical reality.

A new survey of 37 US biotechnology executives finds broad preference for conducting first-in-human trials domestically, with regulatory unpredictability and clinical holds cited as the primary drivers of overseas migration.

In today's ACT Brief, we examine why data quality is the ceiling for all other trial modernization efforts, how CRAs are shifting from compliance monitors to data-enabled partners, and recognition of five rising industry leaders shaping pharma innovation.

Clinical research associates are evolving from compliance-focused manual monitors to data-enabled strategic site partners, but organizations need analytics training, clear operating models, and active change management to make the shift stick.

In today's ACT Brief, we examine why protocol training completion doesn't ensure site execution readiness, how AI clinical monitoring drives measurable financial returns, and structural compliance failures behind rising FDA warning letters.

New eNPV modeling applied to operational data from an AI clinical monitoring agent finds ROI multiples as high as 82x, with time savings and monitoring cost reductions identified as the primary value drivers.

In this episode of Beyond Compliance, Otis Johnson, PhD, MPA, founder and principal consultant at Vantix Operations, speaks with Joseph Kim, Chief Strategy Officer at ProofPilot, and Lauren Briggs, Chief Customer Officer at ProofPilot, about why completing training is not the same as being prepared to execute a protocol.

In today's ACT Brief, we examine new strategies for breaking efficacy plateaus in IBD through combination approaches, why clinical research teams lose talent at the early-career stage, and how FDA's Priority Review Voucher program is reshaping rare disease capital flows.
