The adoption of virtual sites, that are powered by decentralized clinical trial tools, has increased exponentially in the recent years. As adoption accelerates, so do the possibilities that virtual conduct enables. Real-world evidence and long-term follow-up studies have especially benefited from decentralized trial elements. In this webinar, Shaalan Beg, MD, MS at Science 37 and Gordon Cummins, VP of RWE COE at Science 37 will host a conversation with a group of leaders to address challenges faced by the industry. The panel will discuss how virtual sites can be implemented to improve real-world data access and long-term follow up. As well as elaborate on the value virtual sites delivered to patients, sponsors, and CROs alike. Learn how virtual site elements are incorporated today, and how the landscape will change in the years to come. Register today.
