About this session
Session chaired by Sylvain Berthelot
Description:
AI is here, and it’s here to stay, there is no doubt about it. It is hailed as transformative or even revolutionary for the planning and execution of clinical trials. From automating data processing to uncovering hidden patterns and predicting trial outcomes, AI has the potential to drastically change how we manage and interpret clinical trial data. But with this transformation come profound challenges and questions:
- Will AI take humans out of the loop, or will it redefine the roles of clinical data managers and data scientists?
- How can we ensure data integrity, accuracy, and transparency in AI-driven processes?
- Are regulatory frameworks evolving quickly enough to keep pace with the integration of AI in clinical trials?
- What concrete steps can we take today to prepare for AI adoption tomorrow?
This session brings together trailblazers from the industry – pioneers who have launched large-scale AI initiatives and technology vendors driving innovation – to provide a comprehensive exploration of the topic. Through a series of engaging presentations, the audience will:
- Learn from real-world AI implementations in clinical trials, understanding both the successes and the pitfalls encountered along the way.
- Hear from technology leaders how AI is reshaping the landscape of clinical data management and the new skills and mindsets needed to thrive in an AI-enabled world.
- Receive actionable guidance on becoming AI-ready, from upskilling teams and adapting workflows to fostering a culture of innovation.
AI has already caused a global seismic shift. As it gets implemented to clinical trials, it will not only enhance current processes but also lead to a complete rethinking of how we design, conduct, and analyze clinical trials. This session will prepare attendees to meet the challenges of this new reality head-on, offering the tools, insights, and inspiration they need to lead the way.
Join us to explore the possibilities, confront the challenges, and prepare for the future of clinical trials in an AI-enabled environment.
