Future-Proofing: Inclusive and Protective Patient Strategies

As the legal landscape continues to evolve, the uncertainty surrounding diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) initiatives increases though the life sciences industry continues to move forward with DEI initiatives to include all patients in clinical trials.

In this episode, our guests discuss framing strategies designed to protect DEI initiatives from legal challenges. Additionally, the guests acknowledge the importance of clinical trial sites in gaining patient trust. We also address the increased burden technology is putting on the sites as well as patients, suggesting potential ways to reduce these burdens.
