    Podcast Episode #04: Big Data Comes to Fruition

    by Dan McDonald December 11, 2014
    written by Dan McDonald

    – Data-Driven Approaches to Streamlining Study Planning Processes –

    Perspectives of big data have done a complete 180 in the last 10 years. Sponsors and CRO’s are seeking to lessen cycle times while simultaneously managing more complex protocols, and they’re seeking new answers. As data-driven approaches have evolved into refined and sophisticated operations, all of the long-standing promises of data are finally coming to fruition and driving objective results.

    In the latest edition of the Imperial Podcast Series, I interview Bill Gwinn, VP of Clinical Infomatic Solutions at OptumInisight, on using medical statistics to drive efficiencies in the clinical trial process. Hear how big data has evolved and gain a better understanding of the current landscape.

    After listening, you’ll walk away with:

    • The true meaning of big data when it comes to clinical trial planning
    • What to look for when evaluating data providers
    • First-hand experiences on the ability of claims and clinical data to solve the planning problem and predict success
