Is the crowded daily work routine at your study site reaching overwhelming proportions? Does it feel as if you have too many things to do and not enough hours in the day? You’re not alone. We will discuss how to find support in one another in the workplace when our caseloads can seem overwhelming, share some valuable tools we have used to help us stay organized when we are responsible for multiple studies, and offer some tips and tricks to make onboarding new coordinators a breeze, especially when you feel like you don’t have the time! Teamwork makes the dream work. Join us for a great look at how an academic medical center handles a variety of studies and what we have found helps make us successful. Speakers: Hannah Culpepper, CCRC, Clinical Research Coordinator, Medical University of South Carolina; Stephanie Schorr, CCRC, Clinical Research Coordinator, Medical University of South Carolina
Recent discussions around diversity and inclusion have highlighted the limited participation of Americans in clinical research, with only 10 to 20 million out of 320 million involved. Many solutions, like decentralized clinical trials, focus on making participation easier for those already involved rather than reaching new participants. In my presentation, I will showcase initiatives and technologies aimed at recruiting those not yet participating in clinical studies, stressing that inspiration and education are key to growing the pool of engaged populations. Speaker: James Morton, PharmD, Adjunct Professor, UC San Diego Extended Studies
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is on the loose, but don’t panic – instead, join us for a panel discussion that offers a scenic tour of the work of AI. We will start the journey with an introduction to the basics of what AI is and how it is being implemented into clinical research. Our panelists will then steer us toward critical talking points regarding the responsible use of AI and how we can navigate this journey together as we move to embrace its many applications in clinical research. Speakers: Noelle Gaskill, MBA, ACRP-CP, VP, GM of Time Network, Tempus; Lisa Moneymaker, Head of Strategic Customer Engagement, Medidata Solutions; David Vulcano, LCSW, MBA, CIP, RAC, FACRP, VP Clinical Research Compliance & Integrity, HCA Healthcar; Pamela Tenaerts, MD, Chief Scientific Officer, Medable (Moderator)
Managing clinical trials can feel overwhelming when systems are disconnected and data are scattered. In this techXpo, we’ll explore how a site operations management system (SOMS) transforms chaos into streamlined efficiency. Learn how an integrated platform strengthens compliance, improves workflow automation, and boosts overall site performance—empowering research teams to focus on what truly matters: advancing clinical trials. Speakers: Rick Greenfield, BBA-IS, Founder & Chief Strategy Officer, RealTime eClinical Solutions; Nathan Levens, Vice President of Product Strategy, Head of Quality Management, RealTime eClinical Solutions. Sponsored by RealTime eClinical Solutions. This session does NOT offer ACRP Contact Hours.
For too long, clinical trial site operators have had to rely on outmoded, time-consuming processes to pre-screen and enroll participants—only to see a significant number of them screen-fail down the line. Relying on participant questionnaires, interview notes, and fragmented medical records is unacceptable in today’s high-tech, data-driven world. Join this session to learn about Irix®—a groundbreaking software as a service (SaaS) tool that quickly and easily includes or excludes participants at every stage of your unique clinical trial. Speaker: Alyssa Vincze, Principal and Director, R&D, Milliman IntelliScript. Sponsored by Milliman IntelliScript. This session does NOT offer ACRP Contact Hours.
Clinical research professional shortages, high turnover rates, and an increasingly competitive job market contribute to negatively impact the conduct and success of clinical research studies. Employing individual retention conversations to improve and foster retention is one strategy in addressing this issue. These conversations empower managers/leaders in addressing areas of concern impacting an organization’s workforce while building transparency and trust. Attendees will learn the benefits and gain practical skills in preparing for, participating in, and conducting individual retention conversations, focusing on creating a positive atmosphere, asking probing questions, actively listening, and developing action plans based on conversation outcomes. Participants will leave with strategies for continuous follow-up and ongoing professional development, ensuring a sustained positive impact on employee satisfaction and retention. Results from pilot study will be discussed. Speakers: Stephanie Freel, PhD, PMP, Director, Clinical Research Operations, Education & Outreach, Duke University; Lindsay Hanes, BS, CCRC, Clinical Research Manager, The Ohio State University Medical Center; Shirley Helm, MS, CCRP, Senior Administrator for Network Capacity and Workforce Strategies, Virginia Commonwealth University
