Sam and Ivanna speak to Angela Slocum about the difficulty in quantifying the benefits of risk based monitoring when mostly you find no issues in your data. Angela does share an example of a fraudulent site being uncovered through risk based monitoring. We speak about how having experience from multiple clinical functions enables a unique platform for innovation when new demands arise but also when implementing software in the clinical space. We also dwell on managing change in our industry, and how conquering fear is vital even when working with highly skilled experts.

“The science is so much more sophisticated than it used to be. There is much more data than there used to be. The data types and the amount of data are vast. And the roles and skills needed to support all that have evolved”
