In this episode, Darshan Kulkarni sits down with Raymond Nomizu, founder and co-CEO of CRIO, to discuss key takeaways from the SOS conference and the evolving landscape of clinical research.
Raymond shares his journey from running a clinical research site to founding CRIO, a platform designed to modernize site operations through eSource, CTMS, and real-time data solutions. They explore major industry trends, including the rise of site networks, increasing sponsor demand for real-time data access, and the shifting role of decentralized clinical trials (DCTs).
They also discuss whether DCTs are truly revolutionizing research or simply becoming part of standard clinical operations. Raymond emphasizes that while centralization can improve efficiency in areas like finance, data management, and regulatory processes, the investigator-patient relationship must remain localized for research to be effective.
The SOS conference highlighted these ongoing shifts, and the conversation dives into how sites can stay competitive by adapting to sponsor expectations, leveraging technology, and optimizing operations.
