Sam and Ivanna speak Adam Walker about the transformation in clinical data from his experience with CROs, sites and sponsors. Adam takes us through how clinical data collection has evolved from paper forms, to being collected digitally and now fully integrated with patients’ existing devices. This shift increases the volume of data available, the quality of the data, but also puts additional pressure on the industry to make sense of the data in real time. Adam makes the point that technology companies have an advantage in identifying the value of the information collected - not only for treatment, but also to support preemptive lifestyle choices. His advice for anyone working in this field is to “not take the comfy chair” of how we used to do things. 

“The data has not changed, but how we collect it has changed”
