A few years ago, NBTS showed us the problem with the low accrual in clinical trials. This led to a joint effort… trying to figure out what we can do to improve trial accrual, looking at things like telemedicine. This is an opportunity for us to reimagine how we can do trials, to do things more efficiently so that we can help our patients better.
