info_outlineAs the clinical research ecosystem becomes more site and patient centric, I was curious about what an ideal software stack looks like for clinical research sites.
It goes without saying you need a laptop and stable internet connection to do business in this day and age.
But what else do you need to keep yourself organized as a clinical research site?
How can a clinical trial site bring most value to their research participants, run a profitable research operation, and not overwork employees with administrative tasks?
To answer these questions and more, I invited Ryan Jones to join me on the show. If this is your first time listening to Ryan, I also invite you to check out my earlier interview with Ryan, Solving Clinical Research Problems Using Technology, episode #12, of the show.
Aside from the technology discussion, I’m a huge fan of the company culture that Ryan and his leadership team at Florence Healthcare have created for their employees. We wrap up the episode with a couple of great book recommendations that you might be interested in reading.
I hope you enjoy my conversation with Ryan Jones.
