Keynote Speaker:
Toward Electronic Data: Transformative Efficiencies or Utter Confusion
 Mark D. Uehling, Editor, ClinPage
Most modern industries have abandoned the use of paper for data collection, storage and transmission. So the heavy usage of paper by clinical and regulatory professionals in 2009 is both a historical curiousity and an operational issue. This overview of recent trends and technologies will address how—and why—forward thinking companies are already moving toward a more nimble, less paper-intensive future. In the main, over time, electronic data will pay dividends on two fronts: meeting investor expectations for ever-higher efficiencies and public expectations for ever-greater informational transparency.
Featured Speaker:

SCOPE OF CONFERENCE
There are a variety of electronic systems that are now available to make the conduct of clinical trials more efficient. These systems include, but are by no means limited to, interactive voice response systems, clinical trial management systems, and electronic data capture systems. How should these systems integrate, which off the shelf software is the best? What are the common problems with implementation of these systems and how do you resolve them? This inaugural conference is being organized to address these issues.
