    We can think of no better way to kick off Season 3. In a deeply personal and moving episode, two patient advocates share their stories of working tirelessly to deliver a safe and effective gene therapy for children suffering from spastic paraplegia 50 (SPG50).

    This week, Richard Young speaks to Ken Getz, executive director and research professor at Tufts Center for the Study of Drug Development.

    In this episode, Richard and Ken debate whether clinical research is striking the right balance in its approach to risk and innovation, the problem-solving role played by sites, and CISCRP’s work to improve public trust in scientific advances.

  • Does Patient Choice Equal Site Headaches?
    Feb 7 2024

    The first episode of Season 2 is now out! This week, Richard Young speaks to Helen Shaw, co-founder and director of clinical operations at VCTC (a virtual site) and Marie-Claire Flavin, who joined Veeva after many years conducting clinical research for the NHS. Digital trials sometimes have a seesaw effect on different users: more flexibility for patients can mean a heavier admin burden for sites. But it doesn’t have to be this way. This episode covers novel ways that sites are using technology to expand patient choice in clinical research without compromising operational efficiency.
