The Future of Clinical Trials
Tom Rico Pamukcu
8/13/19
6:00 pm – 9:00 pm
Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati – 650 Page Mill Rd, Palo Alto
The clinical research methods of yesterday won’t work for the science of tomorrow, yet the field as a whole is slow to adapt. With the end of blockbuster drugs and the rise of personalized medicine, companies and researchers will need to evolve to avoid being left behind. Not only is adapting to change critical for survival, but those that can adapt the fastest will have a tremendous opportunity in the years ahead.
This talk will identify the good, the bad, and the ugly in the current state of clinical trials, and cross-reference it against advancements in adjacent fields. Expect to learn actionable steps to take today to prepare for the clinical research of tomorrow. Building on your existing understanding of clinical research, you’ll receive new insights for how to personally leverage advances and new trends in technology, policy, and funding to better help your patients and your biotech initiatives thrive.
