Why Clinical Data Research Needs a Makeover in 2023
Clinical research is only as good and thorough as the data that’s available — and we need to do a better job of making that data accessible for researchers.
Unfortunately, the majority of clinical data is based on the same clinical sites and makes conclusions off a limited range of data points. Clinical trials often exclude minorities, rare disease subtypes and other underrepresented populations.
Changing the way we gather and share clinical data isn’t easy. Hospitals, biobanks and
